The Gunpowder Plot was led by Robert Catesby aided by his two Catholic friends Guido Fawkes and John Wright who wanted to get rid of the protestant King (religion rears it's head again!)
Guy Fawkes night has a nice ring to it - Catesby night is a bit of a damp squib...

Gunpowder, Treason and Plot.
I see no reason why Gunpowder Treason
Should ever be forgot."
