20 Mind-Blowing Facts You Never Knew About Friends

1. The Show€™'s End Made Matt LeBlanc Take Up Smoking Again

Friends Joey Chandler Smoking

All good things must come to an end, and as the final episode approached the realisation also dawned on the cast that ten years spent together were also drawing to a close. As such, it'€™s understandable that several of the actors have spoken of their emotions getting the better of them in the final days. Jennifer Aniston has admitted being €œterrified€ about the show finishing, David Schwimmer almost broke down in their final pre-show group huddle, and Matt LeBlanc€™'s willpower deserted him:

€œI had quit smoking for four years, and in that final two weeks I started smoking again because we were so aware that our time together was coming to an end. €˜Yes, I'€™ll talk to you. Yes, I'€™ll always know you, but I won€™t know you like this. I won€™t see you every day, all day. Eat lunch together every day. To have this awesome, awesome experience every week. It€™'s coming to an end.€™€

I watch movies and I watch sport. I also watch movies about sport, and if there were a sport about movies I'd watch that too. The internet was the closest thing I could find.
