Guy Fawkes was a part of a plot to blowup parliament in 1605. The guards discovered 36 barrels of gunpowder under the Palace of Westminster in London. People used to carry models of Guy Fawkes and collect money for charity (Penny for the guy). Nowadays, the celebration is more about watching the fireworks displays.
