This clip from Saturday Morning Live, a Canberra-based Saturday morning light entertainment program, features an appearance by children's character Rowdy Rabbit.

A case of the 1980s obsession with costumed animal performers, Rowdy is a human-sized fluffy white rabbit in a red vest, who communicates in silent gestures to hosts Cameron Humphreys and Donna Lynch. From the footage, viewers can get a glimpse of the show's chatty hangout feel. Man, woman and rabbit sit around a table discussing cakes and offering DIY craft tips. Reflecting their connection to their very young audience, the clip includes a segment in which the hosts read a list of children celebrating their birthdays that day.

Saturday Morning Live offered a mix of news, reviews, music and themed program segments, regularly welcoming guests from the local community.
