Explosions seen this evening in sky -- a gunfight we suspect (3,6,5)
I believe the answer is:
guy fawkes night
'explosions seen this evening' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'sky a gunfight we suspect' is the wordplay.
'suspect' indicates an anagram (a suspicious or unusual spelling).
'sky'+'a'+'gunfight'+'we'='skyagunfightwe'
'skyagunfightwe' anagrammed gives 'GUY FAWKES NIGHT'.
'in' acts as a link.
