Blimey its exactly the same task!
Sorry to twitter but I am listening to the programme (see below) and the panel were asked to find 'Orwellian language' in each of his categories, just on a single day. So there it is - there's your homework done for you (at a basic level). But it would be better to find funnier examples using video. Video has more impact. (PS - I like DJ Taylor's point about the language being refreshed by new words coming up from the streets such as Chav, and not just being a pedant.
