python - How can I replace or remove HTML entities like " " using BeautifulSoup 4

I am processing HTML using Python and the BeautifulSoup 4 library and I can't find an obvious way to replace   with a space. Instead it seems to be converted to a Unicode non-breaking space character.

Am I missing something obvious? What is the best way to replace   with a normal space using BeautifulSoup?

Edit to add that I am using the latest version, BeautifulSoup 4, so the convertEntities=BeautifulSoup.HTML_ENTITIES option in Beautiful Soup 3 isn't available.

>>> soup = BeautifulSoup('<div>a&nbsp;b</div>')
>>> soup.prettify(formatter=lambda s: s.replace(u'xa0', ' '))
u'<html>
 <body>
  <div>
   a b
  </div>
 </body>
</html>'
