I am quite persuaded by recent historical research that suggests Guido Fawkes and his so-called accomplices had nothing to do with any kind of plot at all. The suggestion is that so much gunpowder - barrels and barrels of the stuff - was quite publically 'discovered' underneath Westminster Hall that the handful of men who were executed could not possibly have physically carried it all along the very busy corridors and secretly stashed it: it would have taken a couple of days of endless coming and going. All of the 'plotters' were also found immediately at home, two of them having a relaxed family dinner together at the time, as soon as the 'plot' was made public. They were never actually seen anywhere near parliament. Documents have also been uncovered which suggest the gunpowder was taken from a well-guarded military arsenal on the orders of an official close to the monarch who had a long career as a sycophantic lackey after the 'conspirators' were theatrically incinerated.
