Actually, Andrew was closer: it's en-gb, because
RFC 3066 defines it

and gave us .uk for our domains)
To be somewhat more pedantic, it should be "en-GB", since IIRC the
second ISO code is supposed to be written in uppercase. This is
actually the system used for localization of Firefox in foreign
languages (e.g. fr-CA and fr-FR for the French of Canada and France,
respectively).
