Django Grappelli - Autocomplete and french accents

Question

I have some problems with Django Grappelli Autocomplete.

It works just fine but for some reason, if the name has french accents (é,è,etc) the field shows an '?'.

Here is the screenshot:

Here is my related label:

    def related_label(self):
    return str(self.getFullName)+" - "+ str(self.city)

Thanks

Return unicode object instead of str.

def related_label(self):
    return u'{0.getFullName} - {0.city}'.format(self)
