Speaking about working with Jennifer on the film on the Graham Norton Show, Luke said: "She kindly invited me to dinner at her house and being a little star struck I couldn't believe it when Lisa Kudrow walked in. I was trying to play it cool, but Lisa sat one side of me and Jennifer on the other and I had one of those 'pinch me' moments and thought, 'Wow, I am sitting in between Phoebe and Rachel.'" He added: "It was fun and a very enjoyable job to have. It was a great summer and I had a really easy schedule so spent most of the time in a hotel on Lake Como – I've never had so many people visit me on set!"
