The British tradition of Bonfire Night dates back to 1605, when a Catholic conspirator, Guy Fawkes, attempted to blow up King James I and the houses of Parliament with barrels of gunpowder - but was caught red-handed. Fawkes`s plot was failed, but its failure has been celebrated across the country on 5 November ever since.
