Home Alone fans stunned after realising hated Friends character is in the movie.

There’s hundreds of weird and wonderful crossovers in the film and TV universe, so it can be hard to keep track of your favorite stars’ acting awards.

But our lapses in memory make the moment you recognize a character from one thing that is also part of the cast of another movie or series all the more incredible.

That’s exactly how a host of Home Alone fans feel after noticing that a bloke who played a hated part in Friends joined in the classic Christmas flick.

See if you can work out who it is after watching this:
Actor Larry Hankin had a brief but still memorable role in the festive film, where Macaulay Culkin starred as mischievous kid Kevin McCallister who gets left behind while his family goes to France over the holiday season.

When his mother Kate (Catherine O’Hara) realizes she is a short child while on the plane, the family rushes through the airport as soon as they arrive to find a payphone to call the police and alert people that Kevin is home alone.

She rings the Village Police Department who put her through to a Family Crisis Intervention officer, Sergeant Larry Balzak, aka Larry Hankin.

With a chocolate donut in one hand and the phone in the other, he earns to offer the concerned mum p*ss poor advice and instead flicks through a magazine on his desk.

He asked household a frazzled Kate a string of irrelevant questions while being more preoccupied with his sweet treat, such as: “Has the child been involved in violence with a drunk family member? Has he been involved in an accident? Has the child ingested any poison or is an object lodged in his throat?”
Bemused by her request, he then asks – in between mouthfuls of his donut: “You want us to go to your house… just to check on him? Let me connect you with the police department.”

Larry’s role in Home Alone might have been short and sweet, but we all remember the iconic scene where he munches on his ring-shaped snack and fobs Kevin’s mortified mother off.

He went on to lend his acting talents to the likes of Billy Madison, Pretty Woman and Money Talks, but it was one of his future jobs which made him a recognizable face to viewers.

In the seventh episode of the first season of Friends, which was broadcast in 1994, Larry made his debut appearing as the loathsome Mr. Heckles – who you might better know as the weird neighbor who lived underneath Monica and Rachel’s apartment.

He was only credited as ‘the weird man’ for his cameo in The One With The Blackout, but he was later introduced more formally when he kept popping back up in episodes and spouting a string of bizarre lies – and complaints.
He was a man that was no stranger to sharing bizarre lies, such as claiming to be Chandler’s roommate or accusing Monica and Rachel of disturbing his oboe practice, despite not actually playing the oboe.
