Speaking to she explained: 'The scene was Chandler and Monica were arguing In Vegas about Monica having lunch with [ex-boyfriend] Richard and in our script, Chandler goes up to the hotel room and orders room service and I bring it up as a hotel worker.

However, Matthew didn't feel comfortable with the storyline and he went to the writers and asked for it to be changed.

Lisa added: 'We had rehearsed it ... and the day before we were supposed to shoot it in front of a live audience, I was told that [Perry] went to the writers and said the fans will never forgive [Chandler] for cheating on Monica. He was probably right. That would have possibly changed the course of the show.'

The cheating scenes were removed from the script and Lisa's part was cut.
