Hi Sorry i do not even know if these 5 are crickets or grasshoppers or something else. They all appear to be different to me but!!!     
The picture does not show it well but the top of this ones back and shoulders is green.
Any help gratefully appreciated.

Yes, all grasshoppers. Some are nymphs, which are hard to ID.

I'd say that these are:
1. female Common Green Grasshopper
2. Common Green or Meadow, wouldn't like to say for sure from this angle!
3. Common Green Grasshopper nymph
4. Common Green Grasshopper
5. Lesser Marsh Grasshopper nymph

Thankyou both I do appreciate the help.
As you probbably guessed I am not into these. I just seem to have stumbled into taking pics of insects recently.
However I have found some really pretty creatures and am revelling in the research to find id's.
regards tn.
