Foreign mercenary Guido Fawkes, and a group of English Catholic traitors plan to blow up the Palace Of Westminster and kill King James I in the early 17th century.

The infamous Gunpowder Plot to blow up Parliament in 1605 is the focus of this three-part historical thriller. Kit Harington ("Game of Thrones") stars as Robert Catesby, the driving force behind the plot, who was a committed Catholic at a time when Protestant England persecuted Catholics relentlessly.
