I think you are looking at Saturn low in the south any Jupiter is up high.
Iss wizzes across sky pretty fast !
I did wonder about the movement thing as I remember 'spotting' ISS before and watching it move across the sky! The clouds covering it now but it was like twinkly star if that makes sense?!Iss wizzes across sky pretty fast !
It's nights like this I wish I had a telescope as the night sky absolutely fascinates me.

Can I see the ISS tonight? In the South sky? (with the naked eye, no telescope here!)??
Always travels west to east and you don't need a telescope to see it.Both were visible tonight. Saturn's the one that doesn't move (much)
Well worth getting the Google Sky Maps app, if you haven't already got it. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com....
