I think John McDonnell deserves a lot of credit for apologising for his controversial comments regarding sympathy for IRA terrorists and assassinating Margaret Thatcher.
The tone of his voice suggested that he is full of remorse and regret in a deep sense, leading me to believe that his apology is fully genuine.
I didn't see much of it, but did see the question put to him and his response.
It was noticeable (to me anyway), that however remorseful he was, he quickly brushed over it and made a point of referring to comments put forwards just a few moments earlier.
I interpreted it a very good example of him taking control of the situation, rather than letting the audience member, Dimbelby or anyone else pick up on the point and it then dominate that section of the show.
