Who's On The Bizarre Friends Reunion Guestlist And Why?

The long-awaited Friends reunion special finally has an air date – it will arrive on HBO Max in the US on 27 May, with details for the UK and Ireland to follow. Fans already know that it won't be a new episode, and it won't contain any new scripted material. Instead, the cast will reminisce together about their time making the show. The reunion will also feature a variety of guests, some of whom appeared on the show. These include Tom Selleck, Reese Witherspoon, Elliott Gould, Maggie Wheeler and James Michael Tyler. But there are others, like David Beckham and Lady Gaga, whose inclusion on the guestlist has baffled fans. Jennifer Gannon and Joe O'Shea discussed this in our weekly TV slot.
