That will be the plaster bead failing.
Was this part of an extension?

It wasn’t an extension, we just had the back wall taken out and replaced with 6m bi folds.
Is it anything to worry about and is it an easy fix?

Presumably you had structural engineer designs for the 6m opening?
Yeah I would treat it as a cosmetic issue - scrap out the crack and fill with a flexible, paintable caulk.

Yes, had a structural engineer.
Perfect, thank you.

Watch the crack closely while someone else opens/closes and swings the doors about.
If it's moving then there's no point in filling it.
