It's only been a week, but fans already have their favourite moments from the Friends reunion (and their least favourite, too).

Now, following last week's long-awaited reunion episode, Lisa Kudrow has shared the one interaction during the cast's get-together that she enjoyed the most.

As well as revealing that she watched the reunion with former co-star David Schwimmer, Lisa pointed out a sweet moment between Courteney Cox and Matt LeBlanc that fans might have missed.

Speaking to E! News, the Phoebe Buffay actress recalled: "Well, Courteney comes in and bursts into tears. And then – Schwimmer pointed this out when we were watching it together on Thursday night – I grab a napkin or a tissue, LeBlanc takes it 'cos he's telling a story and doesn't want to skip a beat, and starts dabbing her eyes just on automatic.

"That's who we were."

One notable absence was that of Paul Rudd, who played Phoebe's husband Mike. Explaining why some key Friends players weren't able to take part, the special's director Ben Winston admitted that they didn't have the space to fit anyone else in.

"Well, we couldn't have everybody on, because it's only an hour and 45 minutes," he said. "You can't have too many cameos because of course, there were hundreds of amazing people who were in Friends over the years.

"Sadly, we couldn't get everybody in."
