My word these are hard..
1. Looks strangely like a Great Grey Shrike, though that all goes a bit pear-shaped when you see it bigger
2. No idea, I can't even work out what I am looking at!
3. Looks like a Ficedula Flycatcher
4. Looks good for Semi P...unless its a WR Sand in active primary moult
5. Montagus Harrier
Not confident about any

Could 1 possibly be a Honey Buzzard?
and 2 a Redwing? I can see where you are getting Brambling from now!
