How to repeat last command in python interpreter shell?

Question

How do I repeat the last command? The usual keys: Up, Ctrl+Up, Alt-p don\'t work. They produce nonsensical characters.

(ve)[kakarukeys@localhost ve]$ python

Ipython isn't allways the way... I like it pretty much, but if you try run Django shell with ipython. Something like>>>

ipython manage.py shell

it does'n work correctly if you use virtualenv. Django needs some special includes which aren't there if you start ipython, because it starts default system python, but not that virtual.
