During this time, I was able to do the following:

* Get interviewed in the transfer areas (TLV, LON, other destinations? need to go through an interview before being allowed up to departures - this was a 1st for me, I didn't have to go through this the last time I connected to TLV)
* Go to Lounge
* Take a quick shower in the lounge (terrible paper towels - not impressed!)
* Grab a quick bite at the lounge
* Go to gate, pass through extra security/x-ray/metal detector

I made my flight on time, with no worries. You should be fine!
What did they ask you? Im going to HKG from there, coming in from GVA. Is there of destinations (for interview) and what they ask?
