The plasterboard was fucked and needed to come down, because the ceilings joists are bowed, new plasterboard would have gone on wonky. By the time you take down an old ceiling and replace it with a new ceiling that is still wonky, you will have spent the same as over-boarding it and making it straight.

Why put up new ceiling? Old house, embrace the wonk?
