Yes, I was shocked to see this in a new built when looking for studs to fit a tv bracket.
Although, this one was 4 layers of plasterboard.

My stepson asked me to chase out 15mm cables for his towel rail in a building of a similar age. From memory- I was surprised to find that the wall was three sheets of plasterboard glued together. The walls were framed with 25*25mm timber at the top and bottom, to which the exterior skins of plasterboard were screwed (to stop the wall falling over if somebody leaned on it).
I should have twigged as soon I saw how shallow the door liners were. I naively started drilling 3mm holes looking for the studs, and discovered none over a distance of about 1m.
Seriously carp (sic) build quality.
