Actually, Andrew was closer: it's en-gb, because RFC 3066 defines it as an ISO 639 language code (en for English) plus an ISO 3166 country code (GB meaning, confusingly, the UK; I'm glad the IANA ignored this and gave us .uk for our domains)
Pedant moment: we did get .gb domains, though they got deprecated quickly and replaced with .uk ones. IIRC, about the only people who used them were BT and DERA.
