Remember, remember the fifth of November
The Season of gunpowder and plot...

Have fun burning your effigies tonight...

...And remember -- sparklers aren't light sabres... You have to make your own sound-effects!

A bodged attempt to blow up parliament... And the occasion of torturing, hanging, drawing, quartering and burning a chappie called Guy Fawkes...

An occasion worth celebrating!!!

I heard it was on about 10 minutes after it finished! lol

Show's that Guy was only on the periphery or something?

Did they show the warrents a certain kingly chappie wrote... 'Start with the gentler tortures and work up...' Because they wanted the conspirators found quickly? lol

That line always makes me chuckle... :D
