The dictionary I was using is unicode compatible, but to make the spellchecker recognise the curly quotes, em-dashes, etc, you also need the GB English hyphen .dic file. For some reason it wasn't in the file I downloaded so I went to the LibreOffice site and downloaded their latest English language .oxt file and extracted the following files: en_GB.aff, en_GB.dic and hyph_en_GB.dic.

After installing all three of them into Sigil's dictionary folder, they now seem to be working correctly.
Thank you.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Seriously, I could keep going forever. I can't begin to tell you how grateful I am. This thing was driving me completely insane. You are a Big Chief Lion Killer.

(and thanks also to meme for the FAQ update)
