Channel 4 has released the trailer for its Alternative Election Night coverage.
The clip features comedians on the campaign trail, attempting to recruit potential viewers.
Jeremy Paxman, David Mitchell, Richard Osman, Romesh Ranganathan, Aisling Bea and Cathy Newman star in the skit, with each encountering less than enthusiastic responses to their "Watch Channel 4 on election night" doorstep pitches.
Paxman and Mitchell will host the night of comedy and comment - including an election special of Gogglebox - on Thursday, May 7.
Mitchell previously co-hosted the broadcaster's election night programming in 2010, which also featured Jimmy Carr, Charlie Brooker and Lauren Laverne.
