GUY FAWKES: Remember, remember the 5th of November!



Guy Fawkes is celebrated in the UK on the 5th of November. Guy Fawkes was the leader of a group of Catholic conspirators who tried to blow up the Houses of Parliament and kill the Protestant king James I, using 36 barrels of gunpowder. Then, this was called The Gunpowder Plot. It's now common to celebrate Guy Fawkes with fireworks and bonfires, that's why this holiday is also called The Bonfire Night.
