If you can't get a fixing to go all the way through to something substantial then I would be cutting a hole and fitting some timber behind.

i would use para-bolts into plasterboard then glue brackets to wall, or 6mm through rod into wall with bag of epoxy pellet or knob off 5'' 14's screw n plugs- then glue bracket to wall :lol:
