I'd pull it all the way out and fill the outside as if you leave it part way out sooner or later the wind will catch it and pull it out leaving an unfilled hole.

I'm on the first floor and could only reach the cable from the adjacent window to the left. Getting at the hole itself is a ladder job.
Resolved it from inside by pulling it to me slightly, cutting it and then shoving it back in with a screwdriver. Feels otherwise pretty well stuck so can't imagine it's gonna shift due to wind.

I think this is something called a 'TV aerial'. Never used it, don't want it.
I can easily reach it on the outside, so figured I'd snip it as close as possible on the inside before tugging slightly back into the hole and making good. Don't want to remove it completely and have to deal with the consequent hole through the wall.
That sound reasonable?
