Bird ID - in garden - London UK (1 Viewer)

Hi there, could anyone help me to identify the bird in this video? Seen yesterday in our back garden in kennington, quite near central London. Bigger than a sparrow, smaller than a blackbird. I thought it might be a young blackbird but isn't it the wrong time of year? As you can see I'm no expert! 🤭 Thanks!

...and thus roughly the same size as a house sparrow. Note that immature blackbirds (as in almost all bird species, once old enough to fly) are essentially the same size as adults.
