All I know is, Death needs to actually be a real live Bass. Not the fish, the singing part. Nothing approximates a nice bass rumble, and if you get a good one (they're usually tall and very thin) they can make it almost hollow and a bit echoey, without the aid of sound equipment.
Vetinari: Alan Rickman, though the Thin White Duke is an intriguing choice
Granny Weatherwax: Maggie Smith (a bit stringier than Judy Dench, which I think fits)
Lady Sybil: I can never remember her name, but she's American, and rather tall. She was in "Third Rock" if you've seen that. Tall and a little meaty, but mostly dominant and rather unflappable.
Vimes: it's a pity he's still a bit young, but I thought Hugh Jackman. Unless you decide on Simon Pegg, which would automatically net Nick Frost the part of Colon. Jason Statham is also a candidate for Vimes.
Carrot: is there any way on God's green earth to make Richard Warburton magically a redhead?
Moist von Lipwig: Ed Norton
Rincewind: not quite right, but still I think Kenneth Branagh could make it passable
Nobby: a bit tall, but I like that skinny bloke from The Office (the Brit version)
Foul Ole Ron: Michael Keaton (trust me)
The Bursar: Terry Pratchett (oh come on, he'd have a blast, and he could make up his lines as he goes)
I rather like your casting for Teatime! And alas, my memory for names is terrible (I had to raid my dvds to make this list), so what all has Christopher Eccleston been in? I can't place him, and it's driving me mad.
