November 5th marks the anniversary of the Gunpowder Plot, a conspiracy to blow up the English Parliament and King James I in 1605, the day set for the king to open Parliament. The anniversary was named after Guy Fawkes, the most famous of the conspirators.
The story is remembered each 5th November when 'Guys' are burned in a celebration known as 'Bonfire Night'.
