I tried the octal \243 but I keep getting the same error.

Any ideas how to fix that so I can use it?

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.

Yeah the £ prints just fine, it's when I try to do:

bind £ select 13

That I get the error.

I tried starting with -U and setting defencoding and encoding to UTF-8
but it still gives an error when I try to bind it.
