The Friends gang
It’s true!  After 15 years in the company of good Friends, we’ve decided to move Ross, Rachel, Chandler and the rest of the gang out of the E4 flat and finally go our separate ways. We’ll continue to show Friends up until autumn 2011, so you’ll have plenty of time to say your goodbyes.

The good news is that this gives E4 the opportunity to refresh the TV schedule with new stuff – so that means bringing over new US shows and creating more exciting homegrown series. With more new Skins, Inbetweeners, Misfits, How I Met Your Mother, and One Tree Hill (to name a few) launching over the next 12 months, there’s plenty to keep your eyeballs busy.

Gill Hay, Head of Acquisitions says:  "After 15 years, 10 hit series and 236 terrific episodes it’s time to say goodbye to old Friends and welcome new ones, in the form of more comedy, drama and entertainment from the US and UK.  We are incredibly proud to have been the home of Friends for so long, but at a point when the Channel is undergoing a period of creative renewal it felt like the right time to part company."
