Evening Ben,
The first is correct - a Sawfly, not sure which though.
The next is a Robberfly, yes. All very similar, I find! Side-shots seem quite helpful.
Next up could be a Siccus such as S. ferrugineus, but a key exists that goes into arista-positioning etc., so it may not be that simple!
The last is either an Anthomyiidae or Muscidae - the latter I would think.
Take care, Jason  |

4 is most likely Helina reversio (Muscidae). |
