It's all back to normal by Easter. And, of course, we know it's not back to normal." So, he's admitting that he got it wrong at the start.

He also says (at time 3:00) "Whether the decisions at different time points are going to prove the correct ones - we won't really ever know." So, he's admitting that there's some uncertainty to contend with.

Given that Oracle never got anything wrong, and that he (or she) never saw uncertainty in anything (everything was always obviously, blindingly clear and deterministic to Oracle) then it seems pretty obvious to me that the Prof is NOT Oracle.

And, no, I didn't listen to the whole interview. I stopped listening shortly after one of the interviewers said (at time 1:36) "I said myself, it's just the flu". I'm afraid I simply wasn't open-minded enough to spend another 57 minutes listening to the rest of it.
