In the film, the characters played by Hugh Grant and Martine McCutcheon are caught kissing backstage when a curtain is raised. But the curtain is set to come down on the hall and other school buildings.

Wandsworth council wants to transform the Elliott School in Putney into a £22 million academy.

Among the school's alumni are the founding members of electro band Hot Chip, Alexis Taylor and Joe Goddard, and James Bond actor Pierce Brosnan.

Former pupils at Elliott School - nicknamed the "real-life school of rock" - include several members of So Solid Crew.

As part of the academy deal, the school's freehold - held by a trust - would be transferred to council ownership.

Unions and parents fear the development will mean selling off four acres of playing fields to raise money.

Wandsworth council said no decision has been taken.
