Watched it for the first time tonight. I had previously read that Sam got death threats after his appearance on the show so was expecting him to be really awful.
All it seemed like to me though was that he just didn't fancy the girl at all and as such didn't feign much interest in her.
Yes he came across a bit shallow in some of his comments in the sections where it was just him being asked question on his own separate from the date, but apart from the date being very boring and all don't really know what all the hype was about?
They were just polar opposites. She was constantly giggly, girly, cheery and upbeat and wanted to be treated like an absolute princess, he was so laid back he was practically horizontal and seemed to have a more chilled out vibe going on. He seemed to find her just as equally boring as she found him.
I did not find him likeable from watching the show but only because he seemed very boring and a bit shallow. I don't have a problem at all with him wanting to go halves on the bill though. Apparently it cost 350 pound!

Sam says: “I couldn’t believe some of the reaction from people on Twitter. I had death threats, one person said that the next time I come out in Manchester I’m dead.
“Obviously the show was edited in a certain way that made me look bad, but I’m really not like that personally.
“They tried to paint me as a ‘typical model’.
“We actually had a laugh on the date, and she was a really nice girl, but I ended up getting a lot of stick about splitting the bill.
“It was a really expensive meal, like £350, and I knew I wasn’t going to see her again, so what’s wrong with asking her to split the bill?”
