While reading the latest PTerry, I just had a silly idea.
If the CamUK were to stage a Discworld play, what would the cast look like?
I immediately came up with some ideas but I need more suggestions:

Rincewind - Robin or Jon Argles
The Patrician - Dave Wade
Granny Weatherwax - Michele Minett
Nanny Ogg - Kath Minchin
Ponder Stibbons - Ozzy (played him twice at DW freeforms at GenCon)
The Librarian - Simon Francis
Casanunda - Mouse
Leonard da Quirm - Andy D (if he's not a Nocker, nobody is)

I'm running out of ideas, please help

Moi? Rincewind? I sorta like that :)

I reckon I could do a good Ridcully as well...

Jason would ahve to be Imp-y-celyn
Christi: Angua
Keyvan: Pteppic
Jason Sims (in red wig): Carrot
Rich Marsh: Captain Vimes

I'm sorry, but Casanunda HAS to be Torley

YES!
I was actually thinking that as well, David.
Christi as Angua? Hmm, considering Cass, YES!
Yep, Rich Marsh would be better as Vimes than Dave T, I think.

How bizzare? I'd always seen myself as more of a Magrat Garlick, really.

Curses!

Cool. Erin is blonde, anyway (as Isi suggested), so she can have Angua.

OK, the Librarian used to be a wizard until he was caught in a magical explosion and turned into an Orang-Utan which he likes a lot better as he can climb and swing through L-Space a lot faster and is regularly fed with bananas and peanuts.
Explanation enough?

I used to be nicknamed Nanny Ogg at archery. We had people for nearly all the characters.

Does Colin (treasurer) get to be the Bursar?

Heh, I played Shawn Ogg twice and Ponder Stibbons twice at the GenCon freeform. Nanny was played by a cool lady who was in the original D&D playtesters group. When I met her the year after, I still called her mum ;o)

Colin as treasurer? Need to give him some dried frog pills at the next London game...

Strange, I always thought of myself as a Magrat Garlick... But I think I could be a pretty good Agnes Nitt (Magrat's replacement for those not totally up to date), except I can't sing. *ponders learning though*

Hmmm
