This should be an easy one. Name a real person who has never been part of the Dr Who cast but who has been mentioned on multiple occasions, and who has been in the same position for entire time the program has existed.

There can't be too many people who've had the same job all this time. And possibly be mentioned on Doctor Who.

Queen Elizabeth II ?

Correct. I thought it was an easy one. Prince Phillip has also had the same job the whole time but as far as I know he has never been mentioned in the show.

I contest that Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart is another correct answer, and challenge you to disprove the existence of UNIT.

The question did specify real persons. Disproving the existence of anything is proof of a negative, which is a scientific impossibility.
