 Charles:

Ah, but we do somewhat have canon for the Fidelius being broken.
We know that the stinking rat was the SK. Harry is told that his
parents were murdered while hiding in their house at Godric's
Hollow, but not by PP. Harry is able to tell other people such as
Ron, Hermione, and Slughorn about GH.

Charles, who is dying to see the Godric's Hollow scene(s) in book
7.
