Bishop's Hat and ??? ... both labeled Bishop's Hat... what's the other one?

Hi Everyone....
 
I have 2 plants, both labeled as Bishop's Hat but they produce 2 different kinds of pepper.  Can anyone tell me what is what here? (top two are the same.... )
 
Thanks
Charlie

The second one is either Champion or Rainforest - I presume they were also C. baccatum?
 
Yes... I am pretty sure the lower one is Bishop's Hat.... I'm just not sure about the top two (which are both off the same plant).
 
Those two are either Champion or Rainforest - when it is as ribbed as the one on the right side is then I would say Rainforest.  The only difference I have noticed between Rainforest and Champion is:
 
Rainforest is a small bush - up to 40cm and its branches are very thin and hang under the weight of the fruit.  The fruit are also not smooth like those of Champion - they are deeply ribbed.
