Modern Greek at Oxford

I'm thinking of applying for one of the following courses at Oxford:
Spanish and linguistics
Modern Greek and linguistics
Spanish and modern greek

I was wondering if anyone has done this course/is doing this course and could tell me more about it e.g. how many teaching hours a week etc for an ab initio student, any interesting modules etc also how you went about applying for it with regards to your personal statement (as Oxford is quite unique to offer modern greek I feel like talking about Greek alot would be off-putting for other universities to which I wouldn't be applying for greek?)
Thanks,
zak

Given that Oxford is the only university in the UK which offers Modern Greek (meaning you will certainly have to apply for another language at other universities), and – for reasons beyond me – UCAS only lets you submit one same personal statement to all the universities you apply for, how do you go about it? Do you talk about Modern Greek in your personal statement or what?
