    If you do damage the plasterboard, just bite the bullet and hack the lot off, it's faster than messing about.

    Try something like this
    Ansell Floor & Wall Tile Remover Chisel Tiles Removal on eBay (end time 12-Oct-09 1258 BST)
    But it will all depend on how the tiles were fixed in the 1st place. Sometimes its quicker and cheaper to remove plasterboard too and replace it all.
