Dark Giant Horsefly?

Tabanus sudeticus?

Description:

Very large horsefly (large for the UK at least). It's full length was probably almost the length of a 2p . apparently a line separating both eyes indicates it's a female and that it is more likely to bite humans. Could it otherwise be Tabanus bovinus or Tobanus autumnalis?
