You can hear it can't you? The laugh. A quarter of a century after Friends first aired and you can still hear "OH MY GOD" the minute someone says the word 'Janice'. That is some very effective classical conditioning, right there.

But have you ever wondered what the nasal-voiced legend has been up to since the show ended? Sure, you remember her from The Parent Trap but Janice aka, Maggie Wheeler has actually had quite the illustrious TV career outside of putting up with Chandler's really super-cool inability to have any form of adult relationship. Snaps for pre-2000's f***boys!

Post Friends, Maggie cropped up in big-time shows such as ER, How I Met you Mother and Californication. Plus, there was a role in a 12 minute TV movie that looks more like the title to every Brit's post-holiday doctors appointment, The Oversharer: Hemorrhoids, STD's and Peanut Butter.

But no discredit to Maggie, she's carved out a great career for herself in some big shows, including some voiceover work in children's TV and movies. Plus, she's been happily married since 1990, with two daughters called Juno and Gemma.

Most excitingly of all, she is going to be in The Addams Family remake, out in October. She plays the voice of Trudy Pickering alongside the likes of Charlize Theron, Chloë Grace Moretz and Finn Wolfhard. Although we desperately wish that this could be a Janice x Addams family mash up (imagine how brilliantly weird!), we're also aware that we have to come to terms with the end of Friends and let Maggie spread those wings.
