All sorted now. Ended up using a donor rear mech and riding it home in top gear.
Was a bloody disaster. A stray plastic bag found its way into the rear mech, snapping it across the main body clean in two, ripped the gear cable, bent my rear pannier and twisted the chain across itself by 90 degrees. I straightened that out with some pliers I borrowed in a local mechanics shop. Bent some spokes too.
