David SchwimmerDavid SchwimmerDavid Schwimmer has got himself in a Ross-like tizzy following the opening night of his West End debut in Neil LaBute play Some Girl(s).

The Friends star was mightly miffed to spot a paparazzo snapping away in the stalls of London's Gielgud theatre during a scene where he's only clad in his boxer shorts.

"I was the only person who saw him and because I am on stage all the time I couldn't tell anyone, but I was willing to walk off," he moaned to the Daily Mail.

However, he did manage to see the funny side when asked if thought the snapper had purposely come to catch the actor in his birthday suit. "I don't know," he mused, "but if he did, he needed a giant lens."

Let's hope he also sees the amusing side to the reviews of his performance alongside Troy star Saffron Burrows and comedienne Catherine Tate.

The Independent calls him "bland", while the Mail describes his performance as "nasal."

Luckily, Schwimmer has found a friend in Express critic Sheridan Morley, who says the star "brilliantly captures an essentially nerdish man."

All down to the boxer shorts, no doubt.
