I would bloody well hope not.  Eurostar tickets should have the
traveller's name printed on them (maybe they already do) and check-in

(ditto).  Anyone on a one-way ticket without baggage should be turned
away.  You don't want some raghead setting fire to his shoe laces half
way through the Channel Tunnel.
