Alyce Mary A Platt (born 19 December 1964) is an Australian actor and singer. As an actor, she had roles in TV soap operas, Sons and Daughters (1983–85) and Neighbours (mid-1990s) and worked as a TV presenter and game show host, including on Sale of the Century (1986–91). Platt released her debut album, Beautiful Death, in April 2004.

Alyce Mary A Platt was born on 19 December 1964 and grew up in Melbourne with her parents and two older brothers. From the age of 12 she was singing in competitions. At 16 she attended Box Hill Technical College for a two-year drama course.

Alyce Platt's acting roles include Amanda Morrell in Sons and Daughters from 1983 to 1985, a guest role in the short-lived serial Family and Friends in 1990, and the ongoing part of Jen Handley in Neighbours in the early 1990s, as well as Sarah Wilkes in A Country Practice.

From 1986 to 1991, Platt was the co-host of the then top-rated quiz show Sale of the Century, a job that probably brought her her widest audiences and recognition. She has since returned to this role for one special episode of Temptation on 14 March 2007, during the show's Battle of the Network Shows series, in which Temptation's hosts Ed Phillips and Livinia Nixon were contestants themselves. Most recently she is seen alongside former Sale co-host Tony Barber on TV1's Cash Trivia Challenge.

She has a recurring role on City Homicide from August 2007.
