Scream of the Shalka features the Ninth Doctor, who is a successor to Paul McGann's Eighth Doctor, and is part of the same universe as everything before its release. Labelling Grant's Doctor NOTVALID means considering him a separate character from the one in Doctor Who (TV story) — which just isn't true. The contradiction of which Ninth Doctor is the "real" one is the only thing that makes the story at all controversial. And contradictions are not our problem.
