Friends' star comes to West End

Friends star David Schwimmer has left his hapless alter-ego Ross far behind - by playing a womaniser.

The US actor makes his West End debut next month with the lead in new play Some Girls.

He will appear at the Gielgud Theatre opposite Troy star Saffron Burrows and comic Catherine Tate, who play his exgirlfriends.

Sara Powell and Lesley Manville also play women from Schwimmer's past.
