After plasterers have finished I’ve got a few places where they skimmed one surface and not the adjacent (so no skrim tape used) so have get some cracks formed where the skrim tape should go.

Other than the obvious decorators caulk, is there something that will seal this gap with some strength and let me get a nice clean and crisp finish?

Thanks.

Coving?
I would try with the decorators caulk nice and tight in the corner...If its a fine crack then paint should fill it...

CT1, the best of caulk and of silicone

It is very flexible when dry, more adhesive than anything, and paintable.

Expensive per tube, but you only need 1 for that job. I'd use the spare around any windows, as caulk always seems to crack there.
 
I would also suggest coving, coving makes it look finished off. Coving works with any style, modern or older.
 
Thanks for the coving suggestion but not keen on it in the kitchen and especially where it goes up to a mono pitch ceiling with velux windows. Thanks though
