Due to the UK's ongoing lockdown, 13-year-old Naftali Arden from Borehamwood, England, didn't get to have the Friends-themed bar mitvah he'd originally planned — so he ended up having a virtual one instead.

In the clip above from The Late Late Show, James Corden shows off the Central Perk-style invites Arden made specially for the event, before chatting to the man himself over Zoom.

"I am a huge Friends fan too, so I loved your whole approach to this, and I was really impressed to see someone so young loving the show as much as I do," says Corden. "A friend of mine was also impressed by your whole bar mitzvah, and she wanted to pop in and say hi, too."

Cue Courteney Cox Zoombombing the call, only to tell Arden she's bought him his very own foosball table. She even caps off the call with a quick rendition of Monica's "I know!" catchphrase.

Best. Bar mitzvah. Ever.
