I'm hoping to remove all the plaster and attach a piece of
plasterboard or some MDF to replace it then paint it. It's all hidden
so it's not too much hassle just wanted a bid of advice.

Why remove the old stuff? Just stick a new sheet of plasterboard over the
top, unless the extra 1cm gained is important.

BTDT found the laths were not flat enough.
