1) Anything less than a 1-hour turnaround in Moscow would be a miracle.
2) It's one of the world's most expensive cities, so most of whatever traffic they pick up will be business rather than leisure. Typically a standard Russian tourist visa costs more than £100.
3) The Russian carriers on the route will compete strongly with the fares charged by easyJet and their overheads are significantly lower. (See post above)
Hardly the standard model for a LCC, but time will tell. I can imagine the groans amongst the crews when they find themselves rostered on that one!
