    Try using Google.co.uk....
    Don't the search tools allow you to change from Web to UK?
    Or do you mean Google as in Android or Chrome?

    I have Google set as my default search engine in Firefox and it seems to have defaulted to .com and giving me US shopping etc. It has only started doing it today so it must be something to do with the update this morning so it looks like Firefox is to blame. :o

    Sorted now. There is an option in choose search engines to make .co.uk the default instead of the generic google, it over rides anything that the system wants to do.
