Small Coppers is the first. I was going to jump in with a female Silver-washed Fritillary for the second until I saw the third and realised they're not UK photos. The second could also therefore be a female Cardinal :?: The third is a Large Wall.

Where was the image of the Large Wall taken, Jim?

I think your second image is definitely a female Silver Washed Fritillary. Cardinals have a greenish sheen to the upper hindwings.
