Courteney Cox Recreates Iconic Turkey Thanksgiving Scene From Friends

Monica dancing with a turkey on her head has to be one of the most iconic Friends scenes ever.

And now, Courteney Cox has made our day (maybe even our year) by recreating the hilarious moment. Yep, she's posted a video dancing with an actual turkey on her head.

You can watch below:

"Happy Thanksgiving everyone, I hope you're having a great day," Courteney begins.

"I'm feeling so thankful, and also if I get one more f***ing gif of that turkey on my head dancing like a f***ing fool, I'm just gonna' snap, so, anyway, since I'm the symbol of Thanksgiving... here you go, hope it makes you happy!"

And to the Friends theme tune, Courteney can be seen with an actual raw turkey on her head, dancing in her kitchen.

We can confirm this made us very happy indeed!

Courteney even adds the iconic sunglasses to complete the look - and fans are loving it on social media.

"You really got your head inside that dead turkey just for us?? I'm so thankful," wrote one.

Meanwhile Lisa Kudrow commented: "You DID THAT!!"

And another said: "This made my LIFE."

Friends fans will remember that Monica decided to put the turkey on her head during 'The One With All The Thanksgivings' episode.

The flashback ep focuses on past Thanksgivings, including one in which Chandler spends the holiday season at the Geller household, where he ends up calling a younger Monica "fat".

The following year, when Chandler returns to find Monica has lost weight, Monica tells Rachel she wants to humiliate Chandler to get back at him for his unkind words.

Rachel suggests she trick him into taking all of his clothes off - but in the process, Monica drops a knife on his toe and Chandler is rushed to hospital.

Now in the present day, Chandler is upset about how he came to lose his toe, and in a bid to seek forgiveness, Monica decides to stick the turkey on her head to make him laugh.

It actually turns out the be the cutest scene, because Chandler inadvertently tells her he loves her for the very first time.
