You have to go by int conversion to get codes, and by unichr to get 
corresponding unicode chars, so this seem the solution.

You may eventually use a more condensed expression and avoid n 
concatenation of n chars using join, like this:

 >>> u''.join(unichr(int(x,16)) for x in ['42','72','61','64'])
u'Brad'
