The conversation then moved on to the European referendum campaigns, with Alan struggling to appear impartial.
But the real treat came when Alan brought up Cheryl and Liam from One Direction becoming an item. He couldn’t help but make a joke about Cheryl moving on from a failed relationship by hooking up with a boy band member. Matthew Perry chimed in, sharing his own relationship experiences and making everyone laugh.
The conversation then turned to Matthew Perry‘s new play, “The End of Longing.” He enthusiastically explained that the play is about four broken people in their 30s and 40s trying to find love and romance.

He expressed gratitude that his alcohol issues have been resolved and emphasized that life is much better sober.
Of course, the conversation couldn’t move forward without mentioning Friends. Matthew Perry revealed that when the show came to London to shoot two episodes, it was a big deal. He mentioned that the excitement surrounding Friends was even bigger in the UK than in the States. Alan Carr, disappointed that Matthew couldn’t attend the recent Friends reunion, decided to hold an unofficial reunion on his show, bringing out several props related to the show.
The show ended on a lighthearted note, with Alan Carr performing some classic movie lines with a Black Country accent. The audience and guests couldn’t help but laugh and join in the fun.
