Question Advice on wayleave documents

Potential new customer on Virgin Media and just wanted to ask some quick advice about people's experience with wayleave documents.

I live on a shared drive with 3 houses (4 if I include mine) and everyone has signed the wayleave documents to allow virgin media to place a cable up under a hedge and over some grass into my home, however my neighbour is currently selling her house and wants to inform the potential new residents that a cable installation will be done in november.

My questions are as follows:-

Do the potentially new residents have any legal right to say no if they have not moved in yet? (no documents signed, simply viewing their home a 2nd time)
If the potential new owners as above say no am I legally allowed to get the cable laid down before they move in?
Would the above situation cause issues if they strongly object AFTER the cable is installed?

I am assuming because this wayleave document would go on the deeds then the new owners would be waiving their rights to say no as the previous owners already gave permission to virgin media and myself to allow the cable to be installed along the 'shared hedge'

My concern is even though my neighbour has agreed and signed the wayleave document that there is a possibility they could change their mind if the people viewing their home again dispute it and they think they could lose a potential sale.

On a more pleasant note I think I got a good deal (if the above goes through all ok!)
