The Hansons auction house has put up for bidding original scripts from the iconic sitcom ‘Friends’, discovered in a trash can 25 years ago. 

Fans of the show have the opportunity to bid online for the scripts of two episodes that centre around Ross’ wedding, both filmed in London.

The scripts for ‘The One With Ross’s Wedding, Parts I and II’ were meant to be destroyed after filming at Fountain Studios in Wembley to prevent spoilers. However, an employee found them discarded in a trash can after filming and stored them in a drawer. 

Dating back to 1998, these scripts follow the main characters’ journey to England to witness Ross (played by David Schwimmer) marrying Emily (played by Helen Baxendale) in London.
