Plasterer or carpenter first?

I'm about to start redecorating my house and the first room needs new doors/skirting boards and completely re-plastering (including the ceiling). Which should be done first - plastering or carpentry?

    Definatly a plasterer,that way he can get right to the edges of he wall(skirting) and doors frames,then when the chippy comes in he can put the door beading and skirting on top giving a much better finish.
