An activity using a classic text from John Aylett,
students take on the role of a lawyer defending Guy Fawkes.
'You are Guy Fawkes' lawyer.
Your task is to write a closing speech for the
defence which you hope will persuade the jury that Guy Fawkes is
innocent of the charge of treason!
You have to persuade the jury that Guy Fawkes was
not plotting to blow up Parliament and the King but that rather that
he was the victim of a plan to 'frame' and discredit Catholics in
Britain.'
