  Well it looks like the one I "should" have got from Morrisons , Mrs George Jackman,  does that ring any bells? Other than that it's a wide range of choices @turner2005qNamNour

  Miss Bateman possibly. It's quite often sold in other outlets like supermarkets, diy stores etc, as it's very popular.   
  Did it have pale green bars on the early flowers?

  It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
  
  
  
  I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

  The centres change colour as the flowers fade though. That RHS pic is completely different from how the anthers look on fresh flowers.
  That's why it can be difficult to ID clematis - a lot depends on when the photo is taken, because they can change quite dramatically with the amount of sun/shade as well

  @turner2005qNamNour I just wanted to add if it is a small plant which many of the supermarket Clematis are, would be worthwhile potting it on for now.

  I have worked as a Gardener for 24 years. My latest garden is a new build garden on heavy clay.
