When the cast of Friends reunited earlier this year there was mass hysteria from fans, many of whom wanted some sort of announcement about a future season.
However, it was not meant to be as the gang - minus Matthew Perry - were there to celebrate the work of esteemed director James Burrows.
Unfortunately, any hope of a reunion has been rubbished by Perry in a recent interview, the actor saying he fears it could 'ruin' the classic show.
“That's the concern about doing a reunion show or a movie because it ended so well and we don't want to ruin that,” he said on ITV’s Good Morning. “Everybody always asks about a reunion and there's been no real talk of it.”

Conversely, Perry did admit that being on the show “was such a great job. We all loved each other so much and we all had such a great time that subsequent jobs have been harder to do than that one.”
Then, a glimmer of hope: “So yeah, I guess it would be nice to go back and do more because it was just so much fun.” Fingers crossed Friends fans.
