As a musical children's entertainer, Patsy Biscoe often appeared in episodes of Here's Humphrey, as well as on other children's programmes such as Fat Cat and friends (produced by Adelaide's SAS10).

Born in India, Patsy's family moved to Australia when she was a young child. She has a background as a folk and jazz singer, but made her career out of children's entertainment. Patsy received the SA Great Award in 1984 for her services to the field of children's television and recording. She lives in the Barossa Valley where she has made major contributions to local communities in the area, serving on the Barossa Council as Deputy Mayor and through her involvement in art and cultural activities.

Fat Cat appeared on several Channel 10 shows including Fat Cat and Friends and Crackerjack with Dean 'King of the kids' Davis and Helen Woods. At 7:30 each night on Channel 10, he would be put to bed before adult programming commenced.
