We all remember the final episode of 'Friends' - Monica and Chandler move out of the famous apartment with their babies.

The other friends are all there too, and they walk down the hallway with their arms around each other.

The camera pans around Monica's empty apartment and it's all over.

But one Twitter user has come up with a much less happy alternative.

User @strnks has submitted his own version of what he thinks actually happened.

In a post to Comedy Central UK, he says the show could have ended by revealing it was all a "meth-addled fantasy" of the Phoebe Buffay character.

He says: "Each time she made everything about her, each example of how she's an outsider...it all makes sense".

"All 10 seasons were merely her fevered imagination, projecting herself into the lives of the others".

He adds that the final scene should see the five other friends - Rachel, Monica, Joey, Chandler and Ross - make a reference to "the crazy lady who always stares at us", as Phoebe stares through the window of the infamous 'Central Perk' cafe.

"Phoebe walks past a furniture store and catches her refection in a mirror. The name of the store? 'Ursula'".

"Finally she returns to the park where she sleeps in front of the fountain. A broken lamp stands next to her bench. It starts to rain. From behind, we see her put up six dirty, but brightly coloured umbrellas".

They said they'd be there for her....
