...and another thing: the Aussie host has an annoying pronunciation difficulty where he pronounces the double L as a W... "miwionnaire". It drives me absolutely batty. It's an Australian thing, I think, and also a South Australian accent where they do it as a matter of course.
Kinda like some other Aussies who say "shtreet" for "street" or, worse, "Aushtraya" (3 syllables)for "Australia" (4 syllables).
I will put my soapbox away now...
