Yes, there are rules which apply to the broadcast media throughout the campaign. Eg if a specific constituency is mentioned, all the candidates then have to be named.
On the day of the election ie from 12 midnight until 10pm, they are pretty much prohibited from mentioning politics at all. |

The election story will go: "The polls opened at 7am, Boris Johnson voted at xx am..." |
