Yeah, Tex has been in contact via email and is, rather generously, helping
me with this.

I reset the config of Apache on my local system to utf-8 and that sorted the
problem. So it looks as though the shared hosting service might also have
utf-8 set - which would surprise me because Apache defaults to iso-8859-1
and the hosting firm has opted for defaults in most cases. But before I
waste too much of Tex's (or anyone else's) time, I think I'll wait for a
response from the tech support guys as to how their Apache server is
configured. Meanwhile, I'll hack through the pages of the site and change
the meta statements to utf-8 in case there's nothing set in Apache.
