Unicode error in rtorrent

I'm getting an error in the rtorrent plugin due to unicode characters:

2016-12-20 20:16 CRITICAL task          download-hq     BUG: Unhandled error in plugin rtorrent: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u2019' in position 150: ordinal not in range(128)

This is due to unicode characters in tvdb_epname being passed to an rtorrent custom field.

Flexget 2.8.8 on python 2.7.12+ (Ubuntu 16.10), with:

$ locale
LANG=en_AU.UTF-8

Flexget --debug says:

2016-12-21 06:40 DEBUG    manager                       sys.defaultencoding: ascii
2016-12-21 06:40 DEBUG    manager                       sys.getfilesystemencoding: UTF-8

Is there a setting I am missing or is this a bug in the rtorrent plugin?

Full traceback is:
