I start screen with the -U option.  I don't know if I have to but it
mentioned utf-8 in the man page and thought that it might be a good
idea.

I don't have this problem at all.  I also use a UK keyboard, the £ key
generates the unicode code 0xa3 which goes straight in as unicode and
gets displayed as a £ when displayed.  It's working fine even as I
type this email in emacs inside mutt inside screen.
