Plastering my Ceiling

I've just put up some plasterboard on my ceiling as it was looking quite aged and I'm getting a plasterer to do the walls anyway soon.
When putting the new boards up (only very small room, some of the edges when butted up, are not 100% level, it look like the joists may not be 100% flat. So where 2 boards meet, theres a 2mm difference in how far they come down.

Is this too much for it to be plastered properly ?
Thanks

Hi gas01,
Don't see any problem here for a plasterer.By the time the joints are scrimmed and the ceiling plastered over,you will never notice it. :wink:
