Oh. my. god.
There were a few background and minor characters in Friends who left a lasting impression. From the Ugly Naked guy, to Gunther in the café and not forgetting Estelle, Joey’s agent.
And then there was Janice who is mostly remembered for her high-pitched laugh and rather annoying voice, particularly when it came to her catchphrase, “Oh my god”. She came in for one episode as Chandler’s date and then kept being reintroduced to the show throughout the ten series.
The actress who played Janice, Maggie Wheeler, joined Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes on The Morning couch to talk about Friends Fest in London. She spoke about her experience on the show and her favourite moments.
People are so shocked that she sounds absolutely nothing like her Friends character.
Janice from Friends is on This Morning and a part of me has died inside realising she doesn’t actually talk like Janice from Friends

We are under no illusion that actors and actresses just use their normal voices for shows and movies but she does sound completely different.
