Are you able to find the studs, Pauline?
There's a chance when you drill any holes in your wall, you'll find fresh air - and you'll need hollow wall fixings for that.

Ideally if you had already planned to secure a TV to the wall prior to construction of the stud wall, you should installed stud work to fix to. I would not fancy trying to secure a TV and mount bracket to a hollow wall. Best option would be to open the wall up and fit timbers to secure to.

Okay my misunderstanding! The same applies though, hollow walls are not a good structure to secure tv and wall bracket to, ideally a stud(s)/noggin(s) would be best fixed to, there are hollow way anchor fixings but I would not rely on this to hang a weighty object to. The best option would be to break in to the wall and position some secure fixing points within wall.
 
What type of bracket, without knowing every suggestion will be guess work.
