There I have set - Locale: English (UK) - Default language for documents: English (UK) [this entry also has a little logo showing a ticked "ABC" indicating that the UK English spell checker is available] Then, also, in Tools/Options/Language Settings/Writing Aids make sure "check in all languages" is *not* checked so that only British English will be regarded as correct and Americanisms like "color" will show as errors.
