Can You Help Identify?

Hello!
My Dad has asked me to ID the following plants for him, apologies for the poor quality of the photo's he sent.
I'm guessing the first one is a flowering currant but I'm not too sure on the other two.
Any help would be appreciated.

    Ribes sanguineum at the top I can see without enlarging.

    I can't enlarge them,  so less confident of one of the winter flowering honeysuckles for the second.

    Hi NG - I think you are correct with the first photo & the second one looks like a winter flowering honeysuckle. The third looks familiar but I can't bring it to mind just now. Sure somebody else will be able to help though!

    Thanks nutcutlet & Topbird I thought it was a Ribes image
    I'm the same Topbird, it looks familiar but I can't place it at the moment.

    Agree with the first two.  As for the third one, I can't see it very clearly but something says hebe to me about it - there's one called Mrs Winder that has reddish leaves - but as I can't see it very clearly I'm probably barking up the wrong tree image

    3rd is a Hebe although which one I don't know.

    Managed to get some more photographs, they are a little bit clearer?

    Tidy up any dead stuff first NG, but I can't enlarge the pictures so really can't give any further help.
