　　ACT ONE

　　[OPENING CREDITS]

　　[A hand taps out Morse code. A train whistle blows. Mr Bates sits in one of the cars. A woman

　　takes down the telegram message.]

　　WOMAN

　　Oh, my God.

　　MAN

　　That's impossible. I'll take it up there now.

　　WOMAN

　　Don't be stupid. None of them will be up for hours and what difference will it make?

　　[She hands him the telegram.]

　　WOMAN

　　Jimmy'll do it when he comes in.

　　April 1912

　　[DOWNTON ABBEY, SERVANTS' CORRIDOR - MORNING]

　　[Daisy knocks on the housemaids' bedroom door.]

　　DAISY

　　Six o'clock!

　　[HOUSEMAIDS' BEDROOM - MORNING]

　　[Gwen sits up in bed.]

　　GWEN

　　Thank you, Daisy. Anna.

　　[Anna stirs in her bed.]

　　ANNA

　　For once in my life I'd like to sleep until I woke up natural.

　　[KITCHENS - MORNING]

　　MRS PATMORE

　　Is your fire still in?

　　DAISY

　　Yes, Mrs Patmore.

　　MRS PATMORE

　　Oh, my, my, will wonders never cease? Have you laid the servants' hall breakfast?

　　DAISY

　　Yes, Mrs Patmore.

　　MRS PATMORE

　　And finished blacking that stove?

　　DAISY

　　Yes, Mrs Patmore.

　　MRS PATMORE

　　What about the bedroom fires?

　　DAISY

　　All lit, Mrs Patmore.

　　MRS PATMORE

　　Right, well, take your things and get started on the fires on the ground floor.

　　[Daisy carries a bucket of firewood through the servants' hall and up through the main rooms

　　into the library.]

　　HOUSEMAID 1 (to Daisy)

　　Now hurry up.

　　[Daisy hurries through the library. A footman, Thomas, enters with a silver tray with two drinks.

　　He collects two more in another room.]

　　THOMAS

　　Any sign of William?

　　HOUSEMAID 2

　　No.

　　[Thomas enters the breakfast room where William is laying the tablecloth.]

　　THOMAS

　　Where have you been?

　　WILLIAM

　　I'm not late, am I?

　　THOMAS

　　You're late when I say you're late.

　　[DRAWING ROOM - MORNING]

　　[Anna and Gwen open the windows and fluff the pillows.]

　　ANNA

　　Daisy? Whatever are you doing there crouching in the dark?

　　DAISY

　　You weren't here and I didn't want to touch the curtains with my dirty hands.

　　GWEN

　　And quite right, too.

　　ANNA

　　Why didn't you put the lights on?

　　DAISY

　　I daren't.

　　GWEN

　　Well, it's electricity, not the devil's handiwork. You'll have to get used to it sooner or later.

　　ANNA

　　Skelton Park have even got it in the kitchens.

　　DAISY

　　What for?

　　[SERVANTS' CORRIDOR - MORNING]

　　[Mrs Hughes, the housekeeper, walks with the keys. William knocks on the butler's door while

　　he's polishing the silver.]

　　WILLIAM

　　Breakfast is ready, Mr Carson.

　　MR CARSON

　　Ah, William, any papers yet?

　　WILLIAM

　　They're late.

　　MR CARSON

　　They certainly are. Get the board out so you can do them as soon as they're here.

　　[William sets up a board used for ironing the newspaper.]

　　[DRAWING ROOM - MORNING]

　　MRS HUGHES

　　Is the library tidy?

　　ANNA

　　Yes, Mrs Hughes.

　　MRS HUGHES

　　Good. I want the dining room given a proper going over today. You can do it when they've

　　finished their breakfast. Oh, heavens, girl! You're building a fire, not inventing it. How many

　　have you done?

　　DAISY

　　This is my last till they come downstairs.

　　MRS HUGHES

　　Very well. Now, get back down to the kitchens before anyone sees you.

　　[EXT. DOWNTON - MORNING]

　　[The paperboy cycles up to Downton. Lady Mary gets out of bed and sees him ride past her

　　window. She rings the bell.]

　　[SERVANTS' HALL - MORNING]

　　[The bell for the Queen Caroline room rings as the servants are eating breakfast.]

　　THOMAS

　　And they're off.

　　MRS HUGHES

　　No rest for the wicked.

　　[Mrs Patmore looks at the bells]

　　MRS PATMORE

　　Lady Mary. Are the tea trays ready?

　　[Anna gets up from the table.]

　　ANNA

　　All ready, Mrs Patmore, if the water's boiled. Could you give us a hand to take the other two up?

　　MISS O'BRIEN

　　I've got Her Ladyship's to carry.

　　GWEN

　　I'll help.

　　[Another bell rings.]

　　MRS HUGHES

　　Back door.

　　MR CARSON

　　The papers at last. William.

　　[EXT. BACK DOOR - MORNING]

　　[The paperboy reads the newspaper as William steps out.]

　　WILLIAM

　　You're late.

　　PAPERBOY

　　Yeah. I--I know, but--

　　WILLIAM

　　But what?

　　PAPERBOY

　　You'll see.

　　[MR CARSON'S OFFICE - MORNING]

　　[William irons the newspaper.]

　　MR CARSON

　　Do The Times first. He only reads that at breakfast, and The Sketch for Her Ladyship. You can

　　manage the others later if need be.

　　[William nods as Carson leaves. He starts to  fold up the paper, but stops when he sees

　　something and reads it.]

　　[SERVANTS' HALL - MORNING]

　　DAISY

　　Why are the papers ironed?

　　MRS PATMORE

　　What's it to you?

　　MISS O'BRIEN

　　To dry the ink, silly. We won't want His Lordship's hands as black as yours.

　　[More bells ring. Daisy finishes clearing the table and Miss O'Brien gets up.]

　　WILLIAM

　　Mr Carson, I think you ought to see this.

　　[William hands him the newspaper.]

　　[KITCHENS - MORNING]

　　MRS HUGHES

　　I can't make myself believe it.

　　MRS PATMORE

　　Me neither.

　　THOMAS

　　His Lordship's dressed.

　　[Mrs Patmore looks over at William who is talking to Daisy.]

　　MRS PATMORE

　　William! Will you stop talking and take this kedgeree up, and mind the burners are still lit.

　　WILLIAM

　　Yes, Mrs Patmore.

　　[William takes the dish and heads out.]

　　THOMAS

　　Is it really true?

　　WILLIAM

　　Afraid so.

　　MRS PATMORE

　　Nothing in life is sure.

　　[BREAKFAST ROOM - MORNING]

　　[Robert, Earl of Grantham, descends the stairs with his dog.]

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Morning, Carson.

　　MR CARSON

　　Good morning, my lord.

　　[Robert dishes up the breakfast buffet for himself.]

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Is it true what they're saying?

　　MR CARSON

　　I believe so, my lord.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　I'm afraid we'll know some people on it. I don't suppose there are any lists of survivors yet?

　　MR CARSON

　　I understand most of the ladies were taken off in time.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　You mean the ladies in first class?

　　[Carson nods grimly.]

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　God help the poor devils below decks.

　　[Robert takes his breakfast to the table and puts the napkin in his lap as he sits down.]

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　On their way to a better life. What a tragedy.

　　[Robert opens the newspaper to see a picture of the Titanic. Lady Mary and Lady Edith enter and read over his shoulder.]

　　LADY EDITH

　　When Anna told me, I thought she must've dreamt it.

　　LADY MARY

　　Do we know anyone on board?

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Your mother knows the Asters. At least, she knows him. We dined with Lady Rothfuss last month. There are bound to be others.

　　LADY EDITH

　　I thought it was supposed to be unsinkable.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Every mountain is unclimbable until someone climbs it, so every ship is unsinkable until it sinks.

　　THOMAS

　　My lady.

　　[Thomas hands Lady Sybil a tray with the post and she takes the letter before she enters.]

　　LADY SYBIL

　　Good morning, Papa.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Morning. What's that?

　　LADY SYBIL

　　Just arrived. Telegram.

　　[Robert opens it while he continues to read the paper. Then he is stunned by the telegram's contents. His daughters stare at him, waiting. He gets up from the table without a word.]

　　[CORRIDOR - MORNING]

　　[Robert passes Miss O'Brien as he walks down the hall.]

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Is Her Ladyship awake?

　　MISS O'BRIEN

　　Yes, Milord. I'm just going to take in her breakfast.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Thank you.

　　[Robert knocks on a door. There's a muffled reply behind the door.]

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　May I come in?

　　[Robert enters.]

　　[INT. LADY GRANTHAM'S BEDROOM - DAY]

　　[Cora is reading the Daily Sketch.]

　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　Isn't this terrible? When you think how excited Lucy Rothfuss was at the prospect. It's too awful for any words. Did J.J. Aster get off? Of course, that new wife of his has bound to have been rescued.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　I've had a telegram from George Murray. One of his partners is in New York.

　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　Yes?

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　It seems James and Patrick were on board.

　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　What? They can't have been. They weren't going over till may.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Then they changed their plans. They're definitely on the passenger list.

　　[O'Brien brings the breakfast tray to Cora in bed.]

　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　Thank you, O'Brien, that'll be all for the moment. (to Robert) But surely there were picked up?

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　It doesn't look like it.

　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　What?

　　[Cora puts her breakfast tray aside.]

　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　Neither of them? You must tell Mary. She can't hear about it from anyone else.

　　[Robert nods.]
