One of the nightshades, Solanum nigrum I think, though it looks so sick it's hard to be sure. It's in a bad way (all that yellow and brown) and it's a weed so I'd get it out before it seeds and makes more.
It's poisonous but not in the big league
In the sticks near Peterborough
I'd agree with nut cutlet.
ive just removed two of them that had sneaked into our front garden. They had got quite big with plenty of flowers and berries from green to fully ripe black ones.
toxic in most circumstances but not like its cousin deadly nightshade.
cheers
