`Friends' reunion possible
TV's most famous group of Friends may be headed for a reunion show, former cast member Jennifer Aniston says in a television interview to be broadcast yesterday. In the interview on British talk show Richard and Judy, Aniston said she would like to revive her role as Rachel for a Thanksgiving special. "The only thing I can think of doing is maybe for fun doing a Thanksgiving episode," Aniston said. "Our Thanksgiving episodes were really fun." The hit sitcom ended its 10-year run in May 2004.

Child killings trial continues
A forensic psychiatrist was to testify for a third day at the second murder trial of Andrea Yates, who is accused of drowning her children in a bathtub. Dr Park Dietz, testifying for the prosecution during its rebuttal phase, was to take the stand again yesterday. He evaluated Yates after she drowned her five children in the bathtub in 2001, and he has told jurors that she knew killing them was wrong. Dietz's testimony in Yates' first trial led an appeals court to overturn her 2002 murder conviction. Dietz, also a consultant to Law & Order, said an episode of the television series was about a woman being acquitted by reason of insanity after drowning her children in a tub. After Yates' conviction those involved in the case discovered that no such episode existed.
