Just because I'm a little behind: is this set in the future?

According to the timeline it is a few years ahead but it's mostly played up here as a joke, just treat it as present-day for the most part. Maybe it helps explain some of the advanced hardware on display but generally can be ignored.
 
Just because I'm a little behind: is this set in the future?

Yes and no.

Strictly speaking, the producers say the show is set in a "perpetual now" meaning no matter how much time has passed the show is always set more-or-less in the present.

Being pedantic, accounting for how much time has passed between seasons since the first season this episode ("day") is sometime in either 2015 or 2019 (depending on which election cycle the first season was in.) I'm personally, now, going with 2015 but arguments could be made for 2019.
 
It was better than I thought.
I wonder how long Eugene Victor Tooms (Davros) will live? :lol:

But I wasn't expecting the brother to be revealed as a traitor so quickly.
Though I presume Davros is only a small cog in the complexity of the 24 universe.
