Watch Henry Cavill and Simon Pegg’s funny guide to English slang

Ever wondered what the Dickens us Brits are talking about sometimes?

You’re not the only one.

Fortunately, English actors Henry Cavill (The Tudors) and Simon Pegg (Shaun of the Dead) are on hand to teach you everything you need to know about English slang.

From ‘idiot box’ and ‘damp squib’ to ‘argy-bargy’ and ‘corker’, the pair’s guide for Vanity Fair explains all the colloquial nonsense we use on a daily basis.

Watch the video:

Superman star Henry Cavill returns to our screens later this year as Sherlock Holmes in the second Enola Holmes movie.

The complete The Tudors box set is available on DVD on Amazon.
