Whats the easist way ro remove a Lath & Plaster ceiling ?

There isn't one - which is why plasterboard is often fitted on it
rather than removing it all.

To be exact, how
to remove the plaster as I want to keep the lath to put the plasterboard on.

The plaster curls back over the laths, you cannot really remove the
plaster without bringing down the laths.

Allthough its cracked and water damaged it still seems pretty robust in
places and attacking it with a hammer is going to take ages to get it all
down.

Not only does it take time it generates a huge amount of mess as
years of dust and debris come down with it.
