Editing Rolf Harris (section)

===Later career===
In the late 1980s, Harris was touring in Australia and was asked to sing his own version of [[Led Zeppelin]]'s "[[Stairway to Heaven]]" for the television programme ''[[The Money or the Gun]]'' performing with his own small group; a version was released as a single in the UK in February 1993. This cover version reached number seven in the charts, which led to his appearance at the [[Glastonbury Festival]] in 1993. Harris appeared at six subsequent Glastonbury festivals—1998, 2000, 2002, 2009, 2010 and 2013—and a wobble board Harris used to perform "Stairway to Heaven" on ''[[Top of the Pops]]'' is an exhibit at the [[National Museum of Australia]]. In 2000, Harris, along with Steve Lima, released a dance track called "Fine Day", which entered the "top 30" in the UK charts at that time. A "[[Kilmarnock F.C.|Killie-themed]]" version of the song was scheduled for release in March 2007, to coincide with the Scottish football club Kilmarnock's appearance in the [[Scottish League Cup]] final after the song was adopted by the club's fans in 2003.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.fineday.co.uk|title=Fine Day|access-date=17 January 2011}}</ref> One of the adapted lyrics referred to a hypothetical situation, in which Kilmarnock could be losing the match 5–0, and the club coincidentally lost 5–1. Harris performed "Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport" in 2000 with the Australian children's group [[the Wiggles]]; he was subsequently digitally removed from DVD releases after his conviction.<ref>{{cite web|title= Rolf Harris stripped of his ARIA Hall of Fame induction|url=http://www.smh.com.au/entertainment/music/rolf-harris-stripped-of-his-aria-hall-of-fame-induction-20140701-zss4t.html/|work=Sydney Morning Herald|last=Cooper|first=Mex|date=1 June 2014|access-date=15 February 2017}}</ref>

From 1994 to 2003, Harris was the host of the reality television programme ''[[Animal Hospital]]'', a chronicle of a British [[veterinary medicine|veterinary practice]]. During his time hosting the series, he adopted an abandoned [[English Bull Terrier]] from the practice named "Dolly".<ref name="Time">{{cite web|title=Can you tell what it is yet? 10 reasons to love Rolf Harris|url=http://now-here-this.timeout.com/2013/02/01/can-you-tell-what-it-is-yet-10-reasons-to-love-rolf-harris/|work=Time Out London|access-date=7 June 2014|author=Oliver Keens|date=1 February 2013}}</ref> Harris presented 19 series of ''Animal Hospital'' for BBC One and the show won the ''Most Popular Factual Entertainment Show'' award at the [[National TV Awards]] on five occasions.<ref>{{cite web|author1=Julie Miller|title=Rolf's Animal Clinic|url=http://about.channel5.com/node/1701|website=Channel 5|publisher=Channel 5 Broadcasting Ltd|access-date=7 June 2014|date=13 September 2012|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140714195011/http://about.channel5.com/node/1701|archive-date=14 July 2014}}</ref> Harris eventually announced that it was "time to move on" at the completion of the series, which broke "the hearts of thousands of fans across the country", according to the ''[[Radio Times]]''.<ref name="Ellie">{{cite web|author1=Ellie Walker-Arnott|title=Rolf Harris to present new animal show on Channel 5|url=http://www.radiotimes.com/news/2012-09-13/rolf-harris-to-present-new-animal-show-on-channel-5|website=Radio Times|access-date=7 June 2014|date=13 September 2012}}</ref>

In 2001 and 2004, Harris presented ''[[Rolf on Art]]'', a television series that highlighted the work of a selection of his favourite artists, including [[Vincent van Gogh|van Gogh]], [[Edgar Degas|Degas]], [[Claude Monet|Monet]] and [[Paul Gauguin|Gauguin]].

On 26 September 2004, Harris oversaw a project to recreate [[John Constable]]'s ''[[The Hay Wain]]'' painting on a large scale, with 150 people each contributing a small section. On live BBC television, each individual canvas was assembled into the full picture as part of the episode ''Rolf on Art: The Big Event''.
