It's ironic that the holiday meant to mock Guy Fawkes and celebrate his failure and death has kept his memory alive and led to him becoming something of a folk hero worldwide. He's become more recognizable than the king he attempted to assassinate.

The burning of the effigy of Guy Fawkes in a big local bonfire has been adapted at various times and locations across the UK. It has been The Pope, Margaret Thatcher, Ronald Reagan, other politicians, pop-stars and footballers. All done in good humour.

Small thing I want to correct-its not just England who celebrates Nov 5th, Scotland does too, the small village I grew up in used to have a bonfire, guy and fireworks every year and the city I moved to still has fireworks but no bonfire and guy for some reason. I'm not sure how widespread it is over Scotland but it was a very small village I grew up in so I can only assume it must be relatively widespread

And that after morning prayer or preaching on the said Fifth day of November, they read publicly, distinctly, and plainly, the present Act.” (The act is 661 words and is as unintelligible as one can imagine.]

What a life!
