That looks like a juvenile wheatear to me
Yes, you're right, that looks like a better identification. Juveniles are difficult! (Or maybe I am a bit useless.)

Indeed. It will have been flying up into the air and 'parachuting' down giving a single repeated note, "tee-tee-tee-tee-etc". White outer tail feathers?

Comon as muck now. They hang around tips (like the one in Didcot and the one near Middleton Stoney); Victorians used to call them "shitehawks" instead of their formerly common name "kitehawks". Basically they're posh crows.

They weren't here two years ago, they're immigrants from Rockingham Forest.
