In the UK, when you move house, are the new occupants of your old house legally entitled to open any mail addressed to you

No. The mail is addressed to you. The first thing you should do is organise a forwarding service through the Royal Mail's website. Check the mail that comes through and decide if you should update the records of the companies sending this mail. If mail is specifically addressed to you then it is illegal for anyone apart from yourself, or the mail provider if they think it is suspicious, to open the mail. If it is only addressed to the house or the householder then they can open it. Of course if you have not organised forwarding the mail then they may receive important documents, so you need to be proactive.
