From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

Of course, the tricky bit to remember is that novelisations are secondary sources to all original sources, not just television. I think there are a few cases of the novelisations contradicting novels and/or audios or comics. In these cases, the novelisations "lose" again.

For a long time on this wiki, the classic example was Peri Brown's ultimate fate after she married Yrcanos. The tale given in the novelisation of Mindwarp — that of her going back to Earth and becoming the manager of Yrcanos' professional wrestling career — was discounted as incorrect, since it seemed contradicted by The Age of Chaos, amongst other things. However, Peri and the Piscon Paradox brought it back into the fold as a possible truth.
