Solvent free grip fill. I've had better results with that on skirting. Dries pretty quick so you can hold it on until it grabs. Horrible to remove, like any of those products. Make sure your skirting has been in the room for a while to allow the moisture content to balance with the environment.

Cheers, I've bought 3 tubed of this stuff seems pretty well rated for the job. That's a good tip about letting the wood acclimatise though.

What's going to be my best bet for fixing new skirting to plasterboard with a damp proof membrane behind it? i.e I can't screw in past the plasterboard as it will puncture the membrane. Plasterboard is 12mm thick. Obviously going to use grab adhesive but thinking I might need something else to bend / hold it in place while that sets.
