Having exchanged many an email with Prof. Finkelstein this year, I can attest to the fact that Norman is a most generous person, he's also a hard taskmaster, i.e., his intellect is such that its hard to keep up with his view without doing some reading and digging deep. With regards the PM interview, NF had been warned about PM's tricks, so, was well prepared. Further, Morgan was aware he was dealing with a genuine intellect, one who knows his material inside out, hence, and unlike with Corbyn and others, PM allowed NF time to answer his questions. Being a decent guy, NF acknowledged PM had shown him some respect, others though who cross swords with NF and in bad faith are treated with absolute contempt, i.e., Jonathan Freedland et al.
