Arguably one of the most memorable aspects of the Friends TV series is the relationship between Ross Geller and Rachel Green. Having harboured a crush on her pretty much his entire life, Ross does eventually end up with Rachel when she ditches her dream job in Paris for him, GETS OFF THE PLANE and stays in New York to be with him instead.
They're on-off more times than we can count throughout the series, but in the final moments of the final ever episode, they get back together. However, skipping right back to season four, Ross and Rachel decide to take a break from their relationship after Ross becomes increasingly jealous of Rachel's co-worker, Mark, leading Ross to immediately sleep with Chloe, the 'girl from the copy place'.
HOWEVER. Executive producer and director of Friends Kevin S. Bright has revealed that Ross and Rachel were actually never supposed to go on a break - that they were meant to just stay together the whole time.
IMAGINE how different the show would have been?!

Speaking to Metro.co.uk, Kevin revealed that writers Marta Kauffman and David Crane changed their minds about the course of Ross and Rachel's love - and how it was originally going to run smooth.
He said, "I would say initially when Ross and Rachel was planned, it wasn’t planned that way, that came a little bit later. It allowed us to have fun with the show and give people something to root for.
"We were well aware the audience wanted to keep them together but everything that was keeping them apart... We realised when we got them together when the first kiss happened we thought, 'Wow, the air has kind of gone out of the balloon.' There wasn’t that sexual tension anymore."
He added, "I thought what Marta and David did, which was such a brilliant and brave move with their relationship, as soon as everyone got their wish the wish was taken away. It made it so much better when they did get together."
Well. We suppose that's true. Although it was VERY PAINFUL to watch them both have feelings for each other at different times! But the moment we saw she HAD got off the plane makes it so much more special.
