An iconic London strip club which famously 'never closed during the Blitz' could now be shut down after an undercover sting found performers were breaching 'no touching' rules.

The Windmill Theatre in Soho, immortalised in Judi Dench film Mrs Henderson Presents, is having its licence reviewed after private investigators hired by a women's rights group were touched by dancers in the club's VIP room.

Reports detailing their encounters with the theatre's dancers have now been put before Westminster council, whose licensing sub-committee will decide whether to renew or withdraw the club's licence tomorrow.

The famous Windmill Theatre strip club in Soho could lose its licence over claims performers flouted 'no touching' rules

Licensing rules imposed on strip clubs commonly include conditions such as no touching, no sex acts and no exchanging of numbers.

The women's rights group claim the Windmill's performers regularly breach no-touching rules by asking for extra money to go to a VIP area and tips for security staff to turn a blind eye.

Reports produced by investigators set out the special treatment they were able to buy during their undercover visits.

One report states: 'I was approached by a dark haired female who was wearing a see-through dressing gown and red bra, suspender belt, and knickers an high heeled shoes. She told me her name was Summer.

'I bought her a white wine and a Malibu and coke… she began her dance during which she removed all of her clothing until she was fully naked, as she performed she rubbed herself up and down my groin area'.

The investigator continued: 'I was approached by a tall Asian female… she was dressed in a black bra, knickers, stockings and a see-through short dressing gown, she asked for a glass of champagne which I bought her, we then had a conversation where she offered me a VIP dance for £160 where I could touch her. I agreed and we went back to the VIP lounge.'

The theatre dates back to the 1930s and was the first in Britain to introduce nudity on stage

He concluded: 'We decided that it was time to leave. As we were about to depart, Summer approached me and said "You have travelled the world tonight! You have been to Colombia, had a dominatrix and a sex change person".'

The Evening Standard reported that the owner of the club, Daniel Owide, wrote that he had taken his attention away from the club to care for his father, Oscar, who died last month.

He says that the club is now cleaning up its act.

Mr Owide wrote: 'We have dismissed six dancers, suspended 10 dancers and sent dancers home during the night on 10 occasions. Any breach of the 'no touching rule' results in immediate dismissal.

'I am now confident the entire team are committed to ensuring our compliance and we will work tirelessly to ensure no future lapses.'

Throughout the Second World War, even at the height of the Blitz, London's Windmill Theatre remained defiantly open while bombs rained down on the capital.

The Theatre had introduced nudity on stage for the first time in British history in 1932.

The club gave countless future stars the chance to try out their comedy routines, including Harry Secombe, Bruce Forysth, Peter Sellers and Tony Hancock.

The brain behind the risque shows was Laura Henderson, whose story was turned into the film Mrs Henderson Presents, starring Judi Dench and Bob Hoskins in 2005.
