I feel it is late enough into the month to ask for answers to:
1A Great mob on the rampage (8)
4D A horse might be teary, getting this delivered after six deliveries (10)
Sorry, no crossers in this corner. Thank you for the help.

I'm maybe misremembering, but 4 D might have been Overridden.

PS. Were there misprints in the clues? (I'm wondering if Teary becomes Weary).

Malone, I am wondering about "behemoth".
At first I thought it an anagram, but no?

Rusty, you were right to wonder about Behemoth - it's wrong! The answer is Bergamot, anagram, and part of the theme.

For my query... the preamble does mention misprints.

I thought of behemoth (anagram mob, the) but, couldn't parse the 'he' part.
Malone, I like your answer for 4D - overridden. However, that clashes with the behemoth entry.
I wont be back to this forum for about six hours.
Thanks to both for your replies.

Behemoth is definitely wrong - see my second reply.

Right, Malone!
A crossword too far for me, I fear!

It wasn't too bad a crossword, Rusty - but there was a lot of thematic stuff.
