Charset encoding problems

Charset encoding problems

I have just added a couple of RSS feeds as Gnus groups, however the
encoding doesn't turn out right. Now, I have been trying different
options to set the group option `charset . utf-8' to various charsets,
but cannot get the it to display properly; see snippet below (e.g. the
apostrophe displays as a sequence of byte-strings (?) \303\242...):

`
   building had begun and commenced its re-verification activities.“ Â

Any pointers to how to resolve this, greatly appreciated! Thanks,

Have a look at the articles with `C-u g' to see the raw HTML.  It's
quite possible that the Gwene scripts have double- or triple-encoded
some stuff from some articles.
