The same as a billion in the US. A thousand million.
However, a long time ago, a 'British billion' was a million million, ie. a thousand times bigger than a US billion. The term 'billiard' is sometimes used to mean 'British billion' to clear up the confusion.
Everybody in the UK uses the same definition as in the US though.

Many people in the UK are beginning to adopt the US method of counting. The US system is not as logical, but it is easier.
