I've taken a few notes about the order of the episodes as they were presented but also taking information that was given by various characters. Apparently a 7 day long week lasted over 13 weeks in this show. And time also went backwards as I'll also show. All of the 5 series took place in 1955 which is a REALLY good trick. And the events at the start of series 5 actually happened before series 1 even took place which is an even BETTER trick.
The days of the week for days 1, 2, 3 & 14 were worked out backwards from Leckies statement made on week 3 day 22.
1946 - Percy Marsh joins the RAF as a regular
Friday (possibly November) 1955 - Civilians start 8 weeks (56 days) basic training as C Flight (S1e1)
Saturday Day 2, Kit Issued (S1e2)
Sunday Day 3, Medical Assessment (S1e3)
Thursday Day 14, C Flight allowed to leave RAF Skelton for the 1st time, confirmed by AC2 Richardson "You've only done 2 weeks like the rest of us" (S1e4)
AC2 Lilleys feet nailed to floor of hut (S1e5)
Friday Week 3/Day 22, C Flight do Picket Duty, confirmed by Leckie "Saturday tomorrow, 101 weeks to go". Also confirmed by the AOC & Richardson "How long have you been in the Air Force - 3 weeks sir" (S1e6)
Saturday 12 Noon, C Flight issued 1st 36 hour pass (S1e7)
AC2's Richardson, Lilley & Smith are charged for being AWOL @ 00:18 24rd March 1955 ( A Thursday)
AC2's Lilley & Smith given 7 days jankers, AC2 Richardson given 10 days jankers.
C Flight are still in the 1st part of their Basic Training (confirmed by Cpl Marsh "You havent started the 2nd part of your basic training yet"
Sunday Dec 25th 1955, Leckie, Lilley, Richardson & Smith on duty maintenance RAF Skelton Training Camp (s1e8)

AC2 Smith goes AWOL to help his grandfather (S2e3)
C Flight wins a field exercise (S2e4)
Final Week Basic Training, Cpl Marsh promoted to Acting Sgt (Marsh states he has been a Cpl for 9 years, in other words he became a Cpl the year he joined the RAF. Possible as a DI or not? Acting unpaid, perhaps)
Acting Sgt Marsh demoted to Cpl for burning down barrack hut (S3e1)
Leckie, Smith, Richardson & Lilley posted to RAF Midham for 13 weeks medical training (S3e2)
Marsh, Leckie, Smith & Ricardson arrive at RAF Midham, Lancashire (S3e3)
Week 10 Cpl Marshs wife leaves him (S4e2)

Week 13 trade training Cpl Marsh demoted to AC1 for cheating on final exam (S4e6)
AC1 Marsh posted to RAF Goose Bay, Labrador (Canada)
AC1's Leckie & Smith & LACs Richardson & Lilley posted to Malta
After 1 week in Malta AC1's Leckie & Smith & LAC's Richardson & Lilley posted to RAF Hospital Druidswater (in the West Country)
On the same day newly promoted Cpl Marsh becomes a patient @ RAF Hospital Druidswater (having been promoted for bravery & awarded the George Medal on 14th November 1955 which is impossible as he'd STILL have been at RAF Skelton as a DI) (S5e1)
Cpl Marsh becomes permant staff at RAF Hospital Druidswater (S5e3)
