Matt LeBlanc Stars In BBC Friends Spin Off

1996858HAVING earlier showcased Move Like Michael Jackson – a BBC3 show in which Jermaine Jackson will find someone who can move like his dead brother – my money’s on Kate Garraway – the BBC is now breathing life into the dead career of the man who will be forever known as “Former Friends star Matt LeBlanc”.

Le Blanc is to appear in a new BBC comedy show which tells the story of a British couple trying to recreate their hit UK show for American TV.  It’s another telly show about the telly.
