Bonding to fill the chase and hole to a few mm below the surface. Gyproc easifill for the top.
I'm a big fan of these for the 1,000,003 small filling jobs in this place - https://www.toolstation.com/prep-euro-filling-knife-set/p98277

Worked well for me except I had to do a few rounds of filler and sanding to get it nicely smooth.

Another (cheapskate-ish) method is to fill with bonding, then wait for it to go off a bit, then add a load of water to your mix to skim and smooth over the top. You can also wipe it down a bit with a sponge.
Below was today’s effort. By no means perfect, but a plasterer is coming tomorrow to do other stuff so I didn’t sweat it too much about the finish as it’ll be skimmed.
I've had a plug socket moved along the wall away from the site of a new radiator and now I need to make good the old hole and the chased line along to the new one. Can someone point me to the post from a month or so ago where someone explained how to do this neatly? I've UTFS'd with no luck.
