Helpful wabbers, any chance of suggestions or confirmation

I know the purple ones look the same but I think they are different, sheeps-bit scabious and hard-heads perhaps (from Observer Pocket book of Wildflowers)
I think the delicate pink multi-floret one is meadowsweet, just going by appropriateness of name. Any suggestions? They all grow on a local common where you can also find orchids.

I am not sure but the white umbelifer could be yarrow.

Hello! Lovely flowers these, The second is Yarrow a common grassland plant and the first is a knapweed Possibly greater knapweed (Centaurea scabiosa) do you have a picture of the leaves for the first one? That would help sort out which type of knapweed it is...

Thanks for your speedy replies, I'll check knapweeds in the A-Z (incidentally, I find the A-Z often crashes when clicking on a thumbnail, going to "this webpage is unavailable", I've no idea why.)
Picture 1 is the same plant as Picture 4, it was just the way they uploaded. I have a picture of the foliage/whole plant somewhere, I'll dig it up (hee-hee, not literally of course!)
Any idea on 5, the bumble-bees liked it, getting sticky pollen all over them. I'll post that too.
Nice to have found yarrow possibly. An oft-heard name that I can now put a face to if confirmed.
Cheers.

All of the magenta coloured ones may well be the same species, Further leaf pictures (or greater expertise than mine ) may be needed for full ID

The 'pink' flowers are all Common Knapweed Or Hardhead as it is also known.
The first flower is the 'rayed' form. The other two are normal.
(If you were to remove the outer rays from flower 1. you would be left with flower 2.)
The white fowered plant is Yarrow.

Picture 3 here is what I thought was sheeps-bit, but you all seem to think is Knapweed. I tried another foliage rejected on size, lost the whole lot and had to redo. Could a computer buff save some time there by only rejecting oversize one?

[Herd900rd]

This is the plant I thought was sheeps-bit,Picture 5 in original post, it definitely grew differently to the tall knapweed stroke hardhead. Much lower not many stems from one base. Cheers.

So I would respectfully disagree about the purply ones all being the same.

Do you mean 1 and 4 in the original?
