This is largely true. For the most part, for most people, if they're aware of the story behind Guy Fawkes at all it's limited to him being "Some guy that tried to blow up the houses of parliament".
I mean, sure. He allegedly was involved in such a plot, but that's far from the whole story.
- auxbuss 9y ago"allegedly involved"? He was caught bang to rights guarding the explosives under the House of Lords. The recent BBC 3-part series about it is a good potted history http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p05j1bc9 http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p05j1bc9 It also stars Jon Snow from Game of Thrones (Kit Harington). Spoiler: He dies again!
