If cant fix metal backboxes grab some bonding and stick it back.

Had to do this on a wall once.

Its not pretty but it works (mate was telling me sometimes its the only way)

House is falling to bits you see

You forgot the patching plaster. And I would change the jigsaw for a multitool.

Haha another way is to befriend the plasterer, theyre always after flex for an outside light or cable to connect a cooker, once you have a favour to call in get your hammer out, ask them to patch the hole with plasterboard and get your padsaw out, job done haha!

or do it yourself, its not hard to do it, if your bad at plastering then buy sandpaper as well

No quick fix, sorry. knock it out as little as you need, and get a noggin in there.
