At a guess, you've still got en_US.UTF-8 set as your default
charset. Take a look in /etc/default/locale, and /etc/environment. If
you change those, you will probably have to restart your X session at
minimum. You can also change it for a single shell session by setting
LANG=en_GB.UTF-8.
dpkg-reconfigure locales should also ask you which locale you want
to set as a system-wide default.
