analyse BBC script 1/Mrs browns boys.

in this script the dialogue is written in a way to establish a sense of humour. you can tell this by the way the characters reply very snappy when the other finishes there sentence such as when Agnes responds to Dermot's paragraph without anything in-between them indicating that the words are said with no movement or interruptions between the written words. I've seen other comedy scripts that rely mostly on words too so it must be a common practice when writing a comedy. Agnes aka Ms brown also has a lot more words than the other showing who has the most attention within this scene which also applies to the dynamic to the rest of the show, therefore of course the script also carries said dynamic. in conclusion it is clear which genre and who the character's are within the script down to each word and placement of it , which is another important aspect of script writing so much that without the proper placement most scripts would be confusing.

analyse BBC script 2/uncle.

this script is also similar in the way it has been formatted and written, but with some slight differences such as the action descriptions which also adds to the comedy genre of the script, you can also see the comedy aspect of this script by the actions the characters make in the lines between the dialogue. the dynamic between the two characters is clear just by the words which every script should strive for, an example is the way erol talks down to his uncle in most of the dialogue lines he has which are shown throughout most of the script.
