Whose failed plan to blow up Parliament is remembered on bonfire night?

remember remember the 5th of November, the gunpowder treason and plot. I can think of no reason the gunpowder treason should ever be forgot.

It wasn't actually Guy Fawkes's plan, it was Robert Catsby's. Fawkes was a mercenary recruited by him as he knew about explosives. Fawkes was the first one caught, as it was he who was left to detonate the gunpowder.

no, Except that it was an excuse for the massacre of thousands of innocent Catholics.

Jay Jay, The question specifically asks”Whose failed plot……”. And the answer is Guy Fawkes

Burning people at the stake seems to have been a favorite way of punishment of many cultures of not too distant past .

I think 🤔 I’m going to have a ps5

Mini, it's not a holiday! we don't have a day off work or school! we have to wait until til night time anyway to start the festivities! it is suppose to be on the 5th, for one night only!!!! people spoil it now, by having it when they feel like it!

Player #123495549, it's got nothing to do with the USA!

Portia, no one is saying that it was Guy Fawkes plan! Guy Fawkes was the person they caught trying to light the gun power! That's why fireworks have gunpowder in them, and why he was burnt in the stake. terrible death in those day's. when I was little we made a Guy Fawkes, and put he on the bonfire.

For the USA, it has become the 6th of January 😢

His name was V! Did noone see the movie? lol

Lyndyloo, it was Guido. Guy was the short version he used.

Pretty sure his name was Guido

Robert Catesby was the leader not Guy Fawkes

You would think having this as a holiday.... perhaps someone else will try...
