Connect the following images to an event which happened on this very day. And explain every element , no points for just the overall connect. 3 points up for grabs. One for each element.
Answer:
1st pic: Ancient Chinese rockets which probably were the first applications of gunpowder
2nd pic: Albus Dumbledore, who has a pet phoenix named "Fawkes". JK Rowling named the character after Guy Fawkes.
3rd pic: Hugo Weaving, who played the protagonist named "V" in the film "V for Vendetta" based on the comic book of the same name. The character "V" wears a Guy Fawkes mask and follows Fawkesian principles.
Connect: The Gunpowder Plot of 1605, was carried out by Guy Fawkes who attempted and failed to blow up the British Parliament on 5th November(today). He was hanged, and thus in his memory, Guy Fawkes Night/Bonfire Night is celebrated on 5th November every year.
