Now all you need to do it sort out how to hide those cables

shame it was'nt a chimney breast you could baten out by an inch and where your bracket will fit(if your havin one) plaster board skim job done
BUT U CAN'T
So how about having a Piller upto the TV 18" wide 2" deep and cut the skerting to around at the bottom??
Just an idea which won't take long
