Clouded Drab variation? Lancashire UK

Caught these 3 last night and I suspect that all 3 are different colour variations of Clouded Drab?

I would say yes (although the last may possibly be a Lead-coloured, which I have no experience of).

I have no experience of lead coloured either, but it seems to be a pretty rare species in lancashire, any other opinions?
