Thanks Rick, I'd rather go in prepared for the worst! Out of
interest, what appraoch would you take as an alternative?

If its a wooden framed stud wall there are bound to be horizontal noggins
which will stop your cable or weighted string going very far.
I cut short vertical slots in the plasterboard across these noggins and also
into the noggins to take the cable. Then you have to make good afterwards...
