Tonight's episode of the five-part Arena biography tells the story of Orwell's marriage to Eileen O'Shaughnessy, his growing political awareness, and retraces what was to be the most important journey of his life - the trip he made to Wigan and the industrial north in 1936, in an attempt to understand the embittered and divided working class of the 30s.
