Although you wouldn't know it from her thick Boston-ish accent, the actress behind Lorna Morello on the hit Netflix show Orange is the New Black, Yael Stone, is actually Australian.

On a visit Down Under in March, Stone took the opportunity to teach Uzo Aduba -- otherwise known as Crazy Eyes -- a thing or two about the 'strayan accent and Aussie lingo.

Although Aduba is initially shocked to find Stone hails from the land of Vegemite and mega-buff kangaroos, she is soon "going off like a frog in a sock" with the best of them. She even does a bit as Crazy Eyes in the Aussie dialect.

Her accent strays into the British cockney a few times TBH, but full points for effort, Crazy Eyes. Soon you'll be "flat out like a lizard drinking."
