3 isn't a House Sparrow unless they've started sporting white outertails ;) Very young Yellowhammer seems ok...

5 seems to have a very extensive bib for Willow, though not very warm washed below..is Siberian or hybrid not a possibility there?
 
for the tit - poecile montanus for me too.
4 looks like a pied flycatcher with a slight "spot fly face"
and 3 is of course a sparrow ;:}
