Film and TV Settings

The exterior of Repton School was used to represent the fictional Brookfield School in both the 1939 and 1969 films Goodbye, Mr. Chips and the 1984 BBC television drama version of the story, originally written by James Hilton. Around 200 Repton boys stayed at the School during the holidays in order to appear as extras in the 1939 film.
