Ridicule Fawkes? (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

guy

I believe this is a double definition.

'ridicule' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'fawkes?' is the second definition.
(gunpowder plotter Guy Fawkes)

(Other definitions for guy that I've seen before include "send up?" , "One burned on Nov. fifth" , "Steadying rope" , "Rope; man" , "Make fun of - fellow" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
