If I move one of my sites to be hosted somewhere else will there be down time while the name servers etc are changed? If so, how long can I expect this to be?

Yes, I guess it depends on the registrar, but when I moved PAL around 3 months ago it took about 5 hours. Although I've also seen it propagate almost immediately too. Do expect some downtime though. Maybe take a break and go grab a few Fosters.
There will be no downtime at all if you have the site on both servers. While some people might see server 1, some might see server 2 but it doesn't matter as long as the content is the same.
It will take 24-48 to fully propagate.
It solely depend on the registrar. If you do so I will suggest add a note on your blog about it prior to make changes.
