Sneak peek inside election 2015 debate studio

The leaders of seven political parties are gearing up for a live, two-hour televised general election debate.

The contest, announced after weeks of wrangling, will be the only time Conservative PM David Cameron and Labour's Ed Miliband will face one another in a debate before polling day.

The Lib Dems, SNP, UKIP, Plaid Cymru and the Greens will also take part.

The BBC's Ross Hawkins visited the venue where the debate will be held, ITV's studios at Media City in Salford, to get a sneak preview of the set.
