ucl maths with modern languages

hi, has anyone done the maths with modern languages degree at ucl and could tell me a bit about it? I might be interested in applying for it but wanted to ask a few things. firstly, is it worth it? secondly, I would be applying to straight maths degrees for my other 4 options so how would this work with my personal statement? as would including a small bit about languages make the other unis think I am not as interested in maths so would decrease my chances (even though this is not true)? would it be possible to apply for the ucl course without including a languages part in my personal statement? also how difficult is it to get onto the course? thanks

thank you!
Before I applied, they said at the open day that they were much more interested in the Maths side than the Modern Languages side. I would assume talking about languages in the extra-curricular section may be useful.
