Just normal ready-to-use filler in a tub, look for something 'easy
sanding' as some are cement based and will set like rock!

The decorating shop will be able to give good advice, for the small
extra they may charge for a tub of filler it'd be well worth going
there.

If you try painting a sample over some filled bits and don't like it,
you can still just paper over it.

Not being pedantic but "easy sanding" stuff in a tub doesn't normally
give as smooth a finish as your bog standard Polyfilla or own brand
equivalent "interior filler".
You can fill dents in the lining paper afterwards as well. However
careful you are, there are always bits you miss and the paper highlights
them a treat
