1 - What is the output from 'show create table' in a mysql command prompt for the table containing this data. 2 - Exactly what does your model's __unicode__ method look like? 3 - When you say "When i SELECT this row from mysql, it's displayed correctly" what do you mean exactly? If you mean when you SELECT in a mysql shell, what OS is the shell running on?
