Smoothing a bad join between plasterboard and solid wall

Hi all

We've got a situation in our hallway where a "real" wall (solid brick) joins a plasterboard wall both vertically and horizontally (the building a conversion).

At each point of the join the plasterboard wall is about 5mm back from the solid wall, and rather than being smooth the join is lumpy - it looks like someone has tried to fix it then given up half way, then tried to remove what they'd done and given up.

Basically, is there a way to smooth the joins so they are more level and it's less obviously botched? Short of plastering the whole wall to cover the mess, that is.

Thanks.
 
Depends on the size of the wall, if its not to big an area it would pay to have the whole wall skimmed. :P
