The top one looks like Pentaglottis sempervirens, green alkanet. Deep roots, nice blue flowers, seeds around and resists being dug up
next Centranthus ruber, valerian
thje last is a geranium as Mackers said. At first glance I thought it was G lucidum, then realised it was wet, not a shiny plant. A dry photo might get closer to an ID. How big is it?
I think the first one might be green alkanet. Are the leaves sort of rough / spiky to touch? If so, to be rid of it you have to remove the whole tap root. I hope it's mint...
Then valerian, some kind of bulb, and probably geranium... but I also wondered about creeping buttercup?

First one looks like mint, but it's still a bit early for that much new growth so I might be wrong. The last one looks like a geranium
Mint, valerian, bulb like Bluebell or lily of the valley, geranium.
There is also a variegated lamium like silver beacon in the last photo. Good in dry shade, as will be the geraniums.
3 might be the foliage, which emerges in Spring of bare naked ladies, I have forgotten proper name.

I think punkdoc is right with the bulb... naked ladies (colchicum)
Yes, I think that's it, I thought it looked familiar
