Ever wondered why Guy Fawkes chose bonfire night to launch his plot?

I reckon it was because he though all those bangs would cover up the sound when they broke into the cellar?

Thoughts?

Actually it was a genuine conspiracy.The plotters were pushed by agent provocateurs working for Walshingham,he wanted to expose leading catholics and supplied the gun powder himself.

There is very little evidence the "Gun powder" plot existed in the form kids are taught at school.Guido Fawkes was tortured and confessed,as a foreigner he became the scapegoat for the idea of papist plots to overthrow the throne.

People already had bonfires around november 5th dating back to the old religions,they lit the way of the dead to hell(the origins of our halloween)changing them to a proof of loyalty to the throne and the Church of England was a simple solution for many who had failed to ban them

Guido Fawkes was the psuedonym he used when fighting for the Spanish in the Low Countries. He was in fact an Englishman born in York in 1570, the son of Edward Fawkes, proctor of the ecclesiastical courts and advocate of the consistory court of the Archbishop of York.
