Brilliant - can you 'parse' 1a?

Thanks
Lunatic knocked over = mad reversed
histrionic incident = a scene
a lunatic... a mad(knocked over, dama) +scene(histrionics,acting) and there's a Damascene conversion such as Paul's on the road to damascus

Again, brilliant and thanks to both of you - this has now given me the answer to 3d.

3d - Wreath borne by politician, a democrat (6) - anadem - which is a hidden word, a new word to me and a bit obscure. I always find these sort of clues a bit weak.
