Some of them lath ceilings can be 15mm or more, you'll end using 15mm boards and probably need to rip the lath off and do a bit of framing. This is not the way to do a living room ceiling.

f**k**g badger, you should have just dropped the top member of the cove and slotted the board in straight on top of it.
