Wladimir and Vitali Klitschko speak to BBC Radio 5 Live Breakfast about the situation in Ukraine - and taking up arms to defend their country. Both are former heavyweight world champion boxers and, since 2014, Vitali has been the mayor of Kyiv. This interview hadn't been planned. It came about by chance because of one phone call made by producer, Jonathan Hart. For 5 Minutes On, he and 5 Live Breakfast presenter, Rick Edwards, explain how this came about - and we hear some of the interview itself. Photo credit: Photothek via Getty Images
