The first is not a dog rose - roses have pinnate (or perhaps ternate)
and toothed leaves, while your plant has simple and scarcely toothed
leaves. You may also have noticed a lack of thorns. Philadelphus is not
a plant I'm familiar with, but that would be my immediate suspicion.

The second is a Phygelius (Cape Figwort); the usual yellow-flowered one
is Phygelius aequalis 'Yellow Trumpet'

Mock Orange - that was a pleasant surprise! Can't recall where/why I
thought it was a dog Rose. Must have been misinformed.

Thanks all.
