It's the Opposition Leader's Debate tonight at 8pm on BBC1, featuring Ed Miliband, Nicola Sturgeon, Nigel Farage, Leanne Wood and Natalie Bennett so don't forget to tune in! And in case you want to make things interesting, we've carefully repurposed our Leader's Debate drinking game for this evening's debate. Don't forget to glug responsibly, kids...

Gulp of wine

Every time a person pulls out one of these ‘I’m a person of the people’ anecdotes‘I met a man/farmer/petrol user/immigrant hater/woman/bus driver the other day’

One shot of something slimy

Every time Nigel Farage pulls a ‘oh look at me I’m just a lol’ comedy face like he’s Cara Delevingne or Jim Carrey.

Down a pint

When Nigel Farage gets to his podium – we’ll be surprised if he hasn’t got one there anyway

One sip champers

Every time anyone makes a joke about Ed Miliband not being a true liberal

One sip champers with your pinky finger out

Every time Cameron, or Clegg’s privileged upbringing is mentioned

Shot of kale smoothie

When Green leader Natalie Bennett mentions the importance of ‘going green’

Shrug loads

Ok, we know it’s not a drink, but do it when ‘immigration’ is mentioned by anyone. Is it really the biggest issue affecting you right now?

Glug of gin

When Nick Clegg starts to well up as he realises that he just isn’t the same bit of hot stuff he was five years ago at the last leadership debates

Spit out a mouthful of Irn Bru

In disgust any time Cameron makes a derogatory, stereotypical comment about Scotland or the SNP leader, Nicola Sturgeon

Thimbleful of liqueur

Every time you find just a little bit more about Plaid Cymru and what they do (their leader’s Leanne Wood, FYI)

Neck everything you've got

When a pundit mentions that the battle between the two lead parties is ‘neck and neck’

Pass the sick bucket

When you realise UKIP are actually being treated like a proper party

*Please drink responsibly
