Louis Theroux is still a delight, even when trying to figure out Australian slang

Nope, Louis Theroux can do no wrong.

Even while he haphazardly tries to figure out Australian slang, as part of a video to help promote local cinema screenings of his latest documentary Heroin Town and new shows airing on BBC Knowledge in the country.

Look, the next time we get bad news, we want to hear it from Theroux.
