Keira Knightley talks about a recent visit to South Sudan, a country on the verge of famine. Plus Amir Khan on why he structures his training and fighting schedule around Ramadan.

Now it's gripped by violence between rebels and government forces and four million people are at severe risk of starvation. We examine how, in so little time, the country has gone from the excitement of independence to being on the verge of famine. Keira Knightley, just back from the country, tells us in her only broadcast interview what she saw.
