'''''Seeing I''''' was the twelfth [[BBC Eighth Doctor Adventures]] novel. It was written by [[Kate Orman]] and [[Jonathan Blum]]. It features the [[Eighth Doctor]] and [[Samantha Jones]]. Much like [[NA]]: ''[[Deceit (novel)|Deceit]]'' did before it with [[Ace]], ''Seeing I'' returns companion Sam Jones to travel with the Doctor after having spent three or four years away from him. Unlike Ace (who spent her time travelling and in the [[Spacefleet]]), Sam spent most of her time on [[Ha'olam]].
