Are they one and the same plant?

Lyn and Malcolm:

It is described as red/violet to purple violet George if you are any good at colours, I am not particularly (says Lyn)

This link is not much help really  http://www.clematis.hull.ac.uk/new-clemdetail.cfm?dbkey=593

I think the difference is possibly down to camera exposure/ white balance.

ideasguy:
I think I have misled you. My question wasnt about the colours, it was about the plant name!
In actual fact, the link you gave me has answered the question - they are indeed the same plant.
The RHS list it as Clematis 'Warszawska Nike'

Lyn and Malcolm:

No you didn't mislead me George, it was clear in your posting when I  re read it, it was my mistake :-X

Sorry

Malcolm

ideasguy:
Theres absolutely no need to apologise, Malcolm.
Your colour definition will go into the appropriate field in the Master!
I think colour is very much in the eye of the beholder  :) As Ive remarked elsewhere on the forum, web sites seem to be a bit shy in stating the colour. They show the image and leave it up to the individual!
Unfortunately theres a field in the database which needs a description, so I have to stick my neck out some times.
My father was colour blind, and Julian (my eldest son) is colour blind - he cant tell the difference between red and green.
I'm not, mercifully, and my wife is very good with colours.
