Thanks for sorting the post out. To show my ignorance, I thought some of these "wasps" might be sawflies.
The last pic I was certain was an icheumon wasp simply because it spent ages smelling (with it's antennae) the top of this apple before it decided there was still an apple grub inside- it then stuck it's ovipositor down an existing grubs exit whole.
here's another pic of it "smelling" the apple
