Hi all managed to break a bit of plasterboard and need to fill hole should I just use some filler and back it out and then add second layer to finish? It is only about the size of 2 50 pence pieces

Yes, ordinary filler will do the job. You may want to fill the hole first with a bit of scrunched-up newspaper if it's deep, to give the filler something to hold on to. But if it's not too deep then just filler will do.
Do it in two stages - fill the bulk of the hole first, let the filler harden, then apply a second coat leaving it slightly proud of the surface. When it's completely set ( leave it overnight ), sand it flat and Bob's your uncle.0
