Joyce Mary Jacobs (née Penn; 15 April 1922 – 15 September 2013) was an English born Australian character actress, and comedienne who had a successful career on the small screen, in soap opera and serials, after emigrating there from her native England in 1962. Early life
Jacobs was born one of three siblings in Carshalton, Surrey, England to Leonard Watson Penn and Dora Elsie (née Ferrett) Penn. She did not embark on a professional acting career until arriving in Australia in 1962. Career
During the 1970s, Jacobs played the small, recurring role of Mrs. Carson in Number 96 and Muriel Palmer on The Young Doctors. Joyce is best known for her portrayals of elderly gossips. She appeared in serial Number 96 as a speaking extra, often referred to as Mrs. Carson or Daisy, and appeared briefly in The Young Doctors as Muriel Cover
She appeared in the short film, Heaven on the 4th Floor, in 1998 opposite Bunney Brooke. She appeared in a guest episode on G. P., in the 1986 TV movie Hector's Bunyip and made a guest appearance on All Saints in 2000. A Country Practice (Seven Network)
Jacobs remains best known for her more permanent long running role on soap opera A Country Practice, as Esme Watson. In 1981, she appeared on the pilot episode of A Country Practice, as a character in the medical clinic called Norma, after which she returned to the series donning Edna Everage style glasses and playing Esme Watson on the long running Seven Network series. She was originally a semi regular, but became a regular, starting with Episode 99 in 1982. Having worked on the series for 12 years (805 episodes), she was one of the show's longest serving actresses. She normally appeared on screen alongside fellow veteran actors Syd Heylen and Gordon Piper, although, unlike the latter actors who were written out of the series toward the end of its run on Network Seven to make way for a younger revamped cast, she was retained in the series. A Country Practice (Network Ten)
In 1994, Network Ten continued the series under the same title, but with a new setting and a mostly new cast. Jacobs, however, along with Joan Sydney (as matron) and Andrew Blackman as Dr. Harry Morrison, reprised her role of Esme Watson. The new version was not as successful as the original and was cancelled after 30 episodes. Personal life
After retirement, in an interview with the magazine Woman's Day'' in 2012 she revealed that he had been battling Parkinson's disease for 10 years. After her husband of 64 years, David Ian Hutchinson Jacobs, died in 2011, she resided in a rest home facility, Goodhew Gardens, Taren Point, where she celebrated her 90th birthday with fellow cast members. Jacobs died aged 91, on 21 September 2013.

Джейкобс наиболее известна своей долгой и постоянной ролью в мыльной опере «А кантри практика» в роли Эсме Уотсон. В 1981 году она появилась в пилотном эпизоде «А кантри практика» в роли персонажа по имени Норма в медицинской клинике, после чего вернулась к сериалу в очках в стиле Эдны Эвередж, играя Эсме Уотсон в долгоиграющем сериале Seven Network. Первоначально она была эпизодической актрисой, но стала постоянной, начиная с 99-го эпизода в 1982 году. Проработав в сериале 12 лет (805 эпизодов), она была одной из самых долго работающих актрис шоу. Она часто появлялась на экране вместе с другими ветеранами Сидом Хейленом и Гордоном Пайпером, однако, в отличие от последних актеров, которых исключили из сериала к концу его показа на Seven Network, чтобы освободить место для более молодого обновленного состава, она осталась в сериале. «А кантри практика» (Network Ten)

В 1994 году Network Ten продолжила сериал под тем же названием, но с новой обстановкой и в основном новым актерским составом. Однако Джейкобс, вместе с Джоан Сидней (в роли старшей медсестры) и Эндрю Блэкманом в роли доктора Гарри Моррисона, повторила свою роль Эсме Уотсон. Новая версия не была столь успешной, как оригинальная, и была отменена после 30 эпизодов. Личная жизнь
