The rest of the joints I am ok with.

A small radius of joint filler wiped into the corner (with a glove!) is
about your best bet assuming you are not going to hide it under coving
(where you will have the same problem with the edge of the coving
against the ceiling)

Thanks all for the replies, its seems like there is no hard and fast
rule, fortunately there are no large gaps so will probably just go with
joint filler and hope for the best.

Thanks to all.
