The 28-year-old actress played Charlotte Hinchcliffe on the Channel 4 sitcom - which featured the hilarious foursome Simon Bird, James Buckley, Blake Harrison and Joe Thomas in their awkward years of adolescence - and while she was originally "booked" to appear on the programme, she was told shortly after she "was no longer needed".
Speaking on Capital FM, Emily said: "Well, unfortunately I don't really know what happened here, I was booked to do it - I was very much looking forward to doing it - but then I think the day before I was told I was no longer needed for it.
"It's alright, these things do happen, I think they just decided to go a different route with it or it was to do with production, timings and things.
"Yeah, but it's fine, you know what these things do happen and they're just going a different route I think and I wish them all the best and it's going to be great."
The former 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here' star confessed the show was an "incredible part" of her life and joked she'll only be tuning on New Year's Day because there might be clips of her featured.
When asked if she'd be watching, Emily hilariously replied: "Nah... I'm joking. Of course I'm joking.Of course I'll be watching it because hopefully they'll be clips of me on there!
"Of course I'll be watching, I'll always support them, that programme was an incredible part of my life and it always will be."
The two hour special is set to celebrate all three TV series and both movies with behind the scenes footage, unheard stories and contributions from celebrity fans.
The programme will be the first time the four stars have appeared on the small screen together since the final episode 'The Camping Trip' in 2010.
It will also rank the show's funniest ever moments, including categories like Best Sex Scene and Best Ever Moment.
