Courteney Cox has admitted that she could have played a completely different part in Friends.
The actress says she was initially offered the role of Rachel in the sitcom but she turned it down because she wanted to play Monica instead.
She's told Off Camera with Sam Jones that she felt she related more to Monica - although she insists she's not as obsessive about being neat and she's not as competitive.
Of course the character of Rachel ended up being played by Jennifer Aniston and we can't imagine it any other way!
