   One of the problems found when digging the channel tunnel is that the sea
bed has been compressed and forced down under the French coast. There are
known active geological faults through Britain, such as the Craven fault,
and there is no lack of data on minor earthquakes, so what happens if there
is an unexpected slip along the French coast, causing a minor Tsunami and a
Thames Bore? (They are rare, but the occasional Thames Bore does happen).
