From top to bottom:
Photo number 1 is a weigela
Photo number 2 could be a bush honeysuckle (I'm not 100% on this)
Photo number 3 is a phormium
Photo number 4 is a berberis

Could no. 3 be a yucca? Looks a little sharp leafed for a phormium.Please do not quote spam as this enables it to 'live on' once the spam post is removed.
If you quote me, don't forget the capital 'M'

thank you for all the replies, the third one does have very sharp leaves which i found to my cost when trying to disentangle the blackberry bush that is growing through it! i was getting attacked from all sides lolSometimes not moving backwards is as much an achievement as moving forwards is on other times.

Sisyrinchium would be my bet.

And mine
I'll add this to the main Plant ID thread later.:rudolf: Sheep, pigs, hens and bees on our Teesdale smallholding :rudolf:0 -
Believe number 3 is a Yucca Filamentosa. It's the Yucca which is similar to a Phormium in that it never develops a trunk. However, it's generally smaller with much stiffer leaves.
Often the main plant will die after flowering, but before doing so it will create offsets. This is nature's way of keeping the gene pool fresh and up to date.
