Andrew · Answer

You'll have no problem at all.
If you're tiling a " WET AREA" you must use green moisture resistant board at very least,  its advisable to coat regular plasterboard with PVA @ 50% mix with water.  If it us a WET AREA you must coat it with an appropriate WATERPROOFER otherwise you'll find over time the boards will rot,tiled area will leak and you'll have to rip it our and start again.
