UK:Lisa Kudrow finally watched Friends ... and 'loved it'

Lisa Kudrow has said she finally watched Friends decades after it aired.

The 62-year-old actor starred as Phoebe Buffay in the hit sitcom which followed the lives of six friends played by Kudrow, Jennifer Aniston, Courtney Cox, David Schwimmer, Matt LeBlanc and the late Matthew Perry.

The series ran for 10 seasons, from 1994 until 2004, however, despite its popularity, Kudrow refused to watch it, with the exception of a few screenings with the rest of the cast when the show first came out.

Speaking to her former co-star, Aniston, on Variety's Actors on Actors, Kudrow revealed she watched the show until the early hours of the morning.

"There were whole episodes that I hadn't seen. I just couldn't sit there at home and have anybody walk by seeing me watching a show that I'm in. Because it felt embarrassing to me," she said.
