  • Yes and it is not the pope (or all popes) being burnt, but an representation of the particular pope at the time of the protestant martyrs.

  • @amazon1610 Catholicism, from an English perspective, is a foreign based religion with a poor human rights record. In other words we view it like rather like we view Islam.

  • And i like how they call Queen Mary "Blood Mary"

    Because Henri VIII, Edward VI and Elisabeth are innocent maybe?

    Remember Thomas More and many other catholics (and even lutherians under Henri and Elisabeth's reigns) murdered for their faith.

    That's called a total hypocrisy.

  • Lewes,the centre of multi-denominational cohesion,NOT! But,thank whichever god you believe in that Britain can still hold these kinds of 'festivals' without fear of recrimination or legal censure! God save Britain!

  • @26May1989 Freedom of Speech and Liberty- quite right. My last post re this vid was rejected. I have no idea why !

  • Anyone who has been to Lewes Bonfire Night and thought it entertaining ( which it is ) should perhaps go to Valencia during Las Fallas, and see how that Spanish City celebrate their Saints` Day.

  • 1:59

    The Big Book of British Smiles. :D

  • this video makes it look like bonfire night in general is all about burning religious figures and mainly lewes, okay some people have that view, but most people go to lewes cos its deemed one of the best bonfire nights and firework displays in england! i went to lewes with my freinds and we went to the pub, got a bit drunk and watched the procesions and watched the fireworks and had a good time in general and thats what most people come to lewes for! this video makes everyone looks evil ! lol

  • @MrCatholicforever you really dont understand the history behind this night do you?

  • Excellent!

  • Bunch of crazy sheepshaggers showing their pagan roots.
