To help with my Big Finish Benny novella, All Mimsy Were the Borogoves, I'm re-reading my 1996 Doctor Who novel Return of the Living Dad. There's too much repetition, too many in-jokes, too many characters, and far too many POV shifts, but the prose is generally holding up all right. There are certain similarities with the new show: the emphasis on relationships, the self-awareness - and it's tempting to think that the NAs influenced RTD's thinking, but I suspect that more than anything both books and show are products of their times.
