            I'm not saying you shouldn't ask for IDs but Google Lens will often give instant results.

            3 Viburnum tinus
            4 Leucothoe
            7 Bay

            I could be wrong but that's what they look like to me.

              I agree with Lonicera Nitida and Viburnum Tinus. Don't know the others.

                You're unlikely to find out out the pear Sheal unless a pear expert appears .

                2. Yep Lonicera probably baggesens gold its the most common one - hack away as much as you like with these to reduce them , I'd do it late winter though .
                3. V.tinus
                4. Does look like a Leucthoe . but reminds me of a nandinia as well can't quite make the leaves out
                5. I am going with a Daphne mezereum
                6. I've seen it before but its not coming to me at the moment :scratch: irritating me as well
                7. looks like a Osmanthus Burkwoodii to me

                  Yes, almost certainly Baggesen's and it is one of the extremely vigorous growers and when it gets going can grow two or three feet per year. Excellent as a hedging plant.

                  We removed one this year after having it for many years and used to cut it into shapes, like topiary, but we needed to use a pickaxe to get it out after cutting it right down.
