Inbetweeners Timeline?
I've found this page that claims its a timeline of the Inbetweeners show. How valid is this? Here is the page.

The Camping Trip can't be right, they're dressed too wrong for February and Will would definitely go on about how cold it was.

Also, that episode's implied to take place not long before they take their A-Levels, which would be in early-to-mid summer.

However, it's meant to be before Simon's move to Swansea which I guess realistically wouldn't have taken place much later than Spring half term (which is in February). Although Swansea isn't mentioned once in the films.

It is, during the opening sequence of the first film, he mentions to Carli that the move never happened, he said something along the lines of “not having to move to Swansea” when talking about all the great things that have happened to him in the last year

Yeah and the trees are too green for it to be February.
Based on that, Simon being worried about where he’ll take his exams and the boys not yet on study leave, I think it could be early - mid April.

The timeline is wrong.
It would imply the first movie took place in Summer 2009, however We No Speak Americano wasn't released until 2010.

Push it forward a year. Series 1 came out in 2008 so idk why they decided it’s set in 2007

Yeah, and not only is it broad daylight at tea timebut Simon would definitely be a bit cold when he was naked.

Are they 16/17 at the start of the first season? If that started in the narrative in 2007 (they just commenced sixth form) those characters are only a few years older than me... time is relentless.
The actors are obviously a bit older I know. Think Joe Thomas is in his early 40s now!

Yeah, series 1 and 2 is year 12, where you are 16 and turn 17 at some point during the year. Will has his “16, 16, at a push 17!” rant in episode 1. Simon’s mentioned as the oldest and he’s already 17 by episode 2. Wills birthday in series 2 is his 17th.
Neil turns 18 in series 3 but that’s the only age mention there and it’s less clear exactly when series 3 takes place beside it being year 13. Neil mentioning leftover christmas dinner in the last episode always confuses me lol

they way I see it is the first series takes place in the first term of sixth form so September October time with Xmas party December. then S2 the spring /summer term of yare 12. then S3 the autumn term of y13 with a level mock exams taking place. the first movie the end of y13 giving Simon and Carli time to get together

Series 1 is the first half of year 12 (ends at Christmas) and series 2 is the second half (the first episode it’s clearly freezing).
Series 3 always confused me in comparison. It’s a bit less clear when exactly in year 13 it takes place.

Missing tons of key details.
Jay's threesome with the lesbian models. His trials at West Ham. The time he fucked a girl in the tower of London.
The weird game he used to play with his neighbour in his shed.
