my answers were:-
4d. Large body of troops (7) BRIGADE (I)
10a Conjecture (9) SPECULATE (C)
12a Phantom (7) SPECTRE (E)
22a Daffodil genus (9) NARCISSUS (S)
18d Peculiar (STRANGE) (G)

I agree with your answers and conclusion, Jamjar.
Yes, a setter's error.

Thank you both
Welcome. I suspect the setter might have been going for "cigars" if only 1 letter was wrong. Having said that, they can treat it as a plain crossword this week ;)
231047 here,
I agree it could be a setter's error. However, there is a possibility that the letters are an anagram. There is a word, GRICES, which I found on my crossword solver. I have looked on my Concise Oxford but there is no mention there. I have not had a chance to look anywhere else. Perhaps somebody could look on the internet and advise?
