Quite a few students passed through Will Schuester's Glee club over the years, but we all know nobody could compete with the voices of Rachel Berry and Mercedes Jones, which was good because they were busy enough competing against each other at the start.
The two became much closer in later seasons and luckily Lea Michele and Amber Riley got on like a house on fire too. It looks like they have done a pretty good job of keeping in touch as well, with Lea travelling over to London at the weekend to see her old friend in the ongoing Dreamgirls revival at the Savoy Theatre on the West End, where Amber is playing Effie White.
Lea tweeted a few pics from the night...

Lea of course also starred in Glee alongside her late boyfriend Corey Monteith, who tragically died of an overdose in 2013. The actress was on Sunday Brunch on Channel 4 yesterday and talked about how much the show, which ran from 2009 to 2015, meant to her.
"It was the most incredible time of my life and I had so much fun doing it and we really did build such an incredible fan base," she said.
"We did manage to make it all over the world and the show really touched upon so many subject matters.
"We're like family. It goes beyond friendship with that cast. We grew up together, our lives changed together.

"It's like a family, no matter what up and downs happen there's a bond that will never go away."
N'aww.
