ID - nightshade?

i posted a few months back here in a slight panic as i thought i might have had japanese knotweed, but the conclusion was that it was probably a nightshade. this plant has appeared elsewhere in the garden - looks like it could be a nightshade? unfortunately, the flowers have gone over and looks like berries are forming.

It's pheasant berry, perhaps. Are the stems bamboo like?

cheers, have been googling images of that and it does look very much like a match.
