A/N: Hello! Just to say:

These are simply fun scripts featuring light hearted banter. They don't follow the Downton Abbey storyline entirely, but they feature all of the characters and hint at some of the themes of the series.

None of Downton Abbey etc belongs to me (unfortunately). Warning: The rating may change, depending on the content.

Enjoy!


Part One- Dancing Daisy

ANNA: "Daisy?... What on earth are you doing?"

DAISY: "Tryin' to dance, silly! I don't suppose you could help?"

O'BRIAN: "Could she heck as like."

DAISY: "…What's wrong with it?"

O'BRIAN: "Nothing… if you're training to be a chicken."

HUGHES: "What is going on here?... Daisy, Mrs Patmore must need your help finishing up for the day, should she not?"

DAISY: "Yes, Mrs Hughes."

(SILENCE)

WILLIAM: "… I thought she suited the dance. Very pretty."

(SILENCE)

WILLIAM: "Ahem, right well… I'll just be off."

(SILENCE)

BRANSON: "The poor lad has it bad."

ANNA: "Ah well. Anything interesting in the papers today, Mr Branson?"

BRANSON: "Nothing out of the ordinary- Ah, back again, William?"

WILLIAM: "I, er, forgot something."

BRANSON: "Hmm. Something being a little lady in the kitchen…"

WILLIAM: "Beg your pardon?"

BRANSON: "…Nothing."

(ANNA chuckles)

WILLIAM: "Anna, is there something the matter?"

ANNA: "Fine, I'm fine….Sore throat."

(SILENCE)

ANNA: "…Ahem."

DAISY: "Mrs Patmore doesn't need me after all! Oh William, d'you think you could help me? I'm learning a dance."

WILLIAM: "I- Of course."

(SILENCE)

DAISY: "Not like that you silly beggar. Here."

WILLIAM: "Ah."

BRANSON: (Snorts) "I take it dancing isn't your best suit, William."

THOMAS: "Is anything his best suit?"

BATES: "Ignore him, William. You're doing fine. Perhaps stand a little straighter."

ANNA: "We have an expert among us."

BATES: "I'm terrible. Two left feet."

(ANNA giggles)

DAISY: "William, you need to put your hand higher!"

WILLIAM: "You what?"

(BRANSON snorts)

BATES: "Here. Anna, if I may?"

ANNA: "Oh, well… yes."

(SILENCE)

DAISY: "Ah, that's lovely. You two suit each other, like."

(SILENCE)

BATES: "Yes, well… I'm off to bed. Goodnight."

ANNA: "Goodnight, Mr Bates."

ALL: "Night."

DAISY: (dreamily) "How romantic."

ANNA: "What do you mean?"

DAISY: "You know, with his leg. I meant it was romantic- that he could still dance."

ANNA: "Oh."

(SILENCE)

DAISY: "What did you think I meant?"

ANNA: "What? Nothing."

DAISY: "Are you blushing?"

ANNA: "Don't be so ridiculous, Daisy. I'm off to bed too. Goodnight."

(SILENCE)

DAISY: "Did I say something wrong?"

(BRANSON sighs)
