I doubt there will be an election - he does have the power to request one, but the Queen does have the power to refuse according to the Lascelles Principles - but if one were called I would suspect that Sunday Morning and politics programming would continue throughout the campaign or the launch of Kuennesberg's new show would be brought forwards.
