To brits, they're dublin bay prawns, also known as langoustine.

The crayfish we find in areas south of the Midlands, both the native and American invaders do not resemble those Langusteen look alikes.

It looks like Jamie is actually using Dublin Bay Prawns aka Langoustines aka Scampi aka Norwegian Lobster. I'm sure they're a pretty good substitute if you can't find crayfish in the local supermarket!

Since when did prawns have claws?

No, I think they are crayfish/crawdads - as they are known in the northern hemisphere.

I believe in Oz and similar latitudes, there is a warm water lobster that is commonly known there as a crayfish, but is unrelated to the northern variety.

Jamie's crayfish look suspiciously like prawns!
