    OK firstly breathe!
    Next refer to your personal statement that you sent them - they are more than likely going to ask you questions based on what you put there, so be prepared to expand on what you wrote.
    As for the number of people, if you were expected to give a presentation you would've have been told, so that you could prepare. Interviews are normally just with the head of department of the tutor for the course. In some circumstances there may be more people but it is rare.
    I am going to put a load of links down that will help you, I know they are for job interviews, however the principle is the same.
    In these articles think uni or department where it says company. Remember the interview is also a chance for you to find out more about the course and the university, so think of some questions to ask them too. Why do they think you should study there and not at one of your other choices? http://www.thesite.org/info/careers/getting_a_job/how_to_prepare_for_an_interview.html http://www.thesite.org//docs/info/careers/getting_a_job/getting_the_most_from_a_job_interview.html

    Good Luck
    Let us know how it went
