I build the wall structure first, then the ceiling structure, then put the ceiling up then put the walls up. The logic is that I have a small amount of movement for the ceiling boards which are some what entertaining to put up. The  wall boards can then be raised slightly with a special foot lifting lever to get a snug joint to the ceiling.

Don't forget, if you're working alone, you can now rent a placco "lifter" for doing ceilings. I've never used one, but when I do our livingroom ceiling I might well look into it. Pretty knackering lifting full sheets up, even with a mate!

In the building trade on sites etc its always ceilings first,butting up dry lining walls or spreading the walls up to the ceilings, also the wall plaster board or spreading that way tightens up and covers up any loose or dodgy ends on the overlap of the ceiling boards.Michael.
