Friends said the murder victim, who they named as 18-year-old Robert Knox,
worked as a film extra and was due to appear in the new Harry Potter film
coming out in November.
He died after intervening on behalf of his younger brother Jamie Knox, 16,
when two men, including one said to be armed with two knives, came into the
bar.
A fight erupted inside the Metro bar, next to Sidcup train station, on the
south-east London-north Kent border, before spilling outside onto the
pavement and into the road.
Robert - who went to the same Sidcup Rugby Club as 'gentle giant' teenager
Jimmy Mizen, who was murdered in nearby Lee two weeks ago - was pronounced
dead shortly after the incident at around 12.07am.
The stabbing happened just yards from the shoe shop owned by Jimmy's parents
in Sidcup High Street.
Scotland Yard confirmed a young man died from knife wounds, a 21-year-old man
suffered stab wounds to his chest and a 16-year-old youth also had knife
wounds to his chest.
A police spokesman said: "A man aged 21 has been arrested on suspicion of
murder. He is being held in custody."
Robert, who lived with his family in nearby Swanley, Kent, used to be a
student at Hurstmere School, Sidcup.
Friends and family were leaving floral tributes in Station Road, Sidcup,
today.
