In this clip from an episode of The Mike Walsh Show, actor Daniel Abineri gives an over-the-top camp performance of 'Sweet Transvestite' from the stage musical The Rocky Horror Show. Abineri starred as Dr Frank-N-Furter for a series of runs stretching from 1979 to 1987.

Along with 'Time Warp, 'Sweet Transvestite' is the best-known song from Rocky Horror. It's still surprising to see it sung by a man in fishnet stockings on daytime television in 1981, at a time when homosexuality was illegal for men in NSW. It speaks to how Rocky Horror had built mainstream awareness and become a crossover success.

In addition to giving a consummate Frank-N-Furter performance, Abineri lived the anti-establishment spirit of Rocky Horror off stage, later writing a controversial rock musical called Bad Boy Johnny and The Prophets of Doom that closed in London after offending the Roman Catholic Church.
