IT'S looking increasingly unlikely that the 'Chanel Tunnel' will make a comeback after the fashion house gifted it to the city, the M.E.N. understands.
Chanel's Metiers d'Art show on December 7 saw the construction of a huge canopy for Thomas Street, specially designed for the Northern Quarter thoroughfare. It followed the curve of the street and was fitted with lights, providing an impressive backdrop for the fashion firm's extravaganza.
After the event finished, Chanel suggested keeping the canopy in situ but it was taken down because the structure was only allowed to remain in place on a temporary events license - limited to a month.
As work started on the show in mid-November, that meant it had to come down by December 15.
