Friends reunited?

Current series 'may not be the last'

Fans of Friends have been given fresh hope that the series may not end after all.

Stars Matthew Perry and Courteney Cox Arquette have both hinted that the hugely successful sitcom could return.

The current season, the ninth, is being billed as the last in the States.

But Perry told TV Guide: "We thought last year was going to be the last year, too, so you can never say never."

And at the premiere of Jennifer Aniston's new movie The Good Girl, Courteney said: " "We'll see. Anything can happen."

"There's so many people involved. It's not just me. Who knows what will happen. You can never say never."

Jeff Zucker, head of entertainment at US network NBC, has always hinted that he hoped the lucrative series would continue beyond this year.
