Hi, How many people here have seen the London Special of friends? It has the whole London thing with a whole pile of extra scenes. If you like I will transcribe it for you all who cant see it. Let me know. Cheers, Anthony

Be interested in the extra scenes...

Yes please, Anthony.

Please slightly overlap with the old stuff, so we can see where it fits in.

Has anyone seen the long version of 420 TOW All The Wedding Dresses, with Emily at the dress shop? I've only seen still photographs of this.

I bought it on video about two weeks ago. It's pretty kewl, although there is one part that I'm glad was cut - it's the end of the scene where Phoebe makes Rachel realise that she is still in love with Ross - originally, the scene finished like this:

... RACHEL I mean, I have sexual feelings for him, but I DO love him . . . Oh my god! Why didn't you tell me?

PHOEBE We thought you knew?

RACHEL We?

PHOEBE Yeah, we all know - we talk about it all the time.

RACHEL You all know? Does Ross know?

PHOEBE Oh no, Ross doesn't know anything.

RACHEL Oh, I cannot believe you didn't tell me!

PHOEBE Because we thought you knew, it's so obvious! God, it would be like you know, telling Monica: "Hey, you like things clean:"

----------CUT----------

or you know: "Hey Joey, you're gay:"

RACHEL What?

PHOEBE Oh please, she's always got a broom in her hand!

Gosh! My mind swirls...

Is Phoebe confusing Joey with Chandler? Kathy did admire his broom.

Or outing Joey by derisively referring to him as female? Hardly.

Or does she know a lesbian named Josephine? Misleading if so.

Or subverting the meaning of the word "obvious"? Stands a chance.

Or some other possible explanation? Anyone, please?

*Very* interesting Scotty, what about the other cut scenes?

Tennant Stuart

you

Simple enough - read the previous Phoebe line. She's referring to Monica, assuming Rachel is querying "you like things clean". She's taking the Joey comment as read, or else being her usual time-delayed Phoebe self and not catching up to her own words for 20 seconds.

Gosh yes, Jacqui, thankyou very much - of *course* the broom line refers to Monica, it's very clear now - once you've explained it to me!

So could help me to take the Joey comment as read? When Phoebe said all that about Joey, was she just being perversely non-obvious?

Still puzzled, but only half as much, Tennant

There are many extra little bits - I was quite surprised. It makes me wonder how many 'unseen' scenes there probably are - just think; if they have cut even just 2 mins of each episode, there would be 264 unseen minutes, or about 10 or so episodes - scary, huh?

Some more cut bits: ...

CHANDLER is sitting in his hotel room kicking his shoes off, aiming them at the rubbish bin, but they both miss. He says: "Wow, this is just as boring in England." ...

JOEY and FERGIE on the handycam:

JOEY So, I hear you're single now?

FERGIE Yeah, ummm, I don't like the hat 'that' much. ...

At the end of the video they show some bloopers, and there is one with JOEY and CHANDLER that cracks me up soo much:

After MONICA and ROSS have had their little talk about the flying nun and putting off the wedding, and after they have left the room, JOEY and CHANDLER come out of the bathroom with their pants down to their ankles; they stare out to the audience and say: "What?"

We've seen in Britain a much longer version of the pilot, and IIRC the documentary on making 601 said it came out at 25:34, so they had to cut it to 22 minutes exactly. 601-3 in Britain were all 21 minutes long.

LOL, I guess they deserved the joke after making that brilliant throw to Ross. Thanks for telling us about these extras, it's much appreciated.
