Tachinidae with such sizeable calypters, typical bristles, bend in M vein. Theo or Chris will say more about possible genus.

Thelaira cf. nigripes (family Tachinidae) would be my guess :) Long legs and very big eyes are quite characteristic of this genus, and I think I can only see a few ad bristles on the mid tibia so that would favour
nigripes.
