Cheers. For the mist coat, you just mean diluted wall paper paste? Or something else like pva?
I think the pattern will dictate it.
It's a bit annoying as we were sort of under the impression that they would make good, which is our fault for not clarifying. But if we'd known then we would have removed those strips first and planned for it. Whereas as it stands I can't do it today, and I can't do it tonight.

Bingo.
From the photos this seems to be the most sensible way to do it, and what I'd do. It won't be a nice job and you should invest in a decent dust mask and keep any little ones away while the sanding is going on. You'll also need to apply a mist coat before lining and pay close attention to any filling required.
