Cracks in wall

BellA

Hi,
Around 2 year ago my living room and dining room were seperated (it was open plan) with plasterboard (I'm guessing, I didn't live here then) however, I've just noticed that there is a big crack up the wall and then random little jaggered cracks on the left side of the wall, which i'm thinking is where the brick wall is and the large crack is where the brick wall meets the plasterboard.
I was wondering if this is normal with plasterboard and how I cover them? Thank you

A bit of Polly filler, wait for it to dry, sand back to the level of the rest of the wall, then repaint that whole wall.

What's on the other side? Is it the neighbours house?

If it's an outside wall, pop out when it's daylight and make sure nothing has cracked.

Hi, nope it's our dining room on the other side, it was open plan but it was seperated. There's no cracks on the other side

Filled cracks always crack again - I have found this product very good https://www.diy.com/departments/make-good-ready-mixed-jointing-filling-finishing-compound-2-5kg/5060370713097_BQ.prd

They also do a product for repairs in the same range but I used the one above because I already had it. It lasted much longer that filler, was really easy to get a good finish and dried exactly the same colour as Dulux Timeless paint so I didn't even have to repaint!
