The time span (SPOILERS)

So the final episode jumps six months, then one year, then six years... does this mean the rest of the series takes place around seven and a half years earlier, i.e. 2007. I was never aware of this as I was watching it... and at one point (the v-log episode) they spoke about v-logs being "way back in 2006". Surely they would say 'last year'...

OR do we simply jump into the future from the present day?

I have to say they aged Henry perfectly across the six-year time-leap.

And I assume there will be no second series of this, partly from the time-leap in that final episode and partly because RTD mentioned his next project is about HIV.

Same couldn't be said for Freddie unfortunately, who was supposed to have aged six years because he had a sleeve tattoo.

No. The series ends in 2019/2020.

This is because by 2nd episode it's house party people are playing FIFA 2014, and characters are using iPhone 5 and 5s

Lance's timeline says 1966-2015. Then the series jumps 2 weeks, 6 months, a year, then 6 years. So we'd be in 2022 in the final scene.
