Playfulness (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

whimsy

(Other definitions for whimsy that I've seen before include "Fancy; notion" , "Capricious idea - sounds like Sayers' sleuth" , "Odd or fanciful idea" , "Piece of sudden fancy, caprice" , "Fanciful ideas" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times and The Times.
