In the [[1970s]], Patsy was a [[policewoman]] under [[Bob Lines|Sergeant Robert Lines]] in [[Smallmarshes]]. She brought the [[Third Doctor]] and Sergeant Lines some [[tea]] whilst they were talking.

In the [[1970s]], Patsy was a [[policewoman]] under [[Bob Lines|Sergeant Robert Lines]] in [[Smallmarshes]]. She brought the [[Third Doctor]] and Sergeant Lines some [[tea]] whilst they were talking. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Scales of Injustice (novel)|The Scales of Injustice]]'') She once worked in surveillance.

Patsy | Patsy embarked on a career at the [[Ministry of Defence]] and frequently acted as a liaison between the ministry and [[Preternatural Research Bureau|P.R.o.B.e.]], a job through which she met and became friendly with [[Liz Shaw|Dr Liz Shaw]]. It took her some time to convince [[Richard Stevenson|Sir Richard Stevenson]] of the merits of P.R.o.B.e.'s continued existence, but he eventually came around and became most helpful. ([[HOMEVID]]: ''[[The Devil of Winterborne (home video)|The Devil of Winterborne]]'') | ||
=== Helping Liz === | |||
In [[August]] [[1994]], Patsy visited P.R.o.B.e.'s office at [[Ashley House]] to inform Liz and [[Louise Bayliss]] of the difficulty she had in keeping the murders around [[Hawthorne (The Zero Imperative)|Hawthorne]] from being investigated by [[Scotland Yard]], but she was convinced by them to continue doing so to avoid P.R.o.B.e.'s total loss of funding. After [[Colin Dove]]'s arrest, Patsy had him detained at Hawthorne per Liz's request. ([[HOMEVID]]: ''[[The Zero Imperative (home video)|The Zero Imperative]]'') | |||
Patsy's work meant that she had little opportunity to comfort Liz after [[Reuben Shaw|her father]]'s death. After Sir Richard was replaced with [[Brian Rutherford]], P.R.o.B.e. was again in danger but Rutherford required Patsy's agreement in order to close them, which she refused to do. She involved herself in Liz's and [[Burke|D.I. Burke]]'s investigation at [[Winterborne School]] following the arrest of [[Gavin Purcell]], helping interrogate him. She gave Rutherford a report on the investigation once the true criminal, [[Christian Purcell]], was identified. ([[HOMEVID]]: ''[[The Devil of Winterborne (home video)|The Devil of Winterborne]]'') | |||
By [[ | Rutherford put Patsy in charge of solving and keeping quiet a number of murders. She had P.R.o.B.e. and [[Ackroyd (Unnatural Selection)|Colonel Ackroyd]] and his men investigate. She was frustrated by Rutherford's unwillingness to grant P.R.o.B.e. full access to [[Julius Quilter]] and at his refusal to accept the evidence that Quilter was involved. Once his connection to [[BEAGLE]] was revealed, Patsy informed Liz and Ackroyd that he had been forced to resign. ([[HOMEVID]]: ''[[Unnatural Selection (home video)|Unnatural Selection]]'') | ||
Patsy replaced Rutherford as minister and continued to assist Liz. She told her about how Christian Purcell's body had been found and later discussed [[Isaac Greatorex]] and his [[grimoire]] at Liz's house. She was angry at Gavin Purcell's successful appeal and stuck her neck out to have him transferred to Liz's custody. ([[HOMEVID]]: ''[[Ghosts of Winterborne (home video)|Ghosts of Winterborne]]'') | |||
By [[2014]], Patsy had entered a romantic relationship with Liz and lived with her. She had also been promoted and worked closely with the Defence Secretary [[Brian Williams (When to Die)|Brian Williams]]. She decided that P.R.o.B.e. should be the ones to execute [[Paul Reynish]]. After the mission's conclusion, she decided to resign from the ministry and move to [[Spain]]. She asked Liz to go with her, to which she smiled.
