Which allows them to use *Colonel* Lethbridge-Stewart and the Great Intelligence/Yetis, but not UNIT or *Brigadier* Lethbridge-Stewart.

If I may. The licence covers the character of Alistair Lethbridge-Stewart, which is owned by Haisman and Lincoln. His rank is immaterial, except for the context of the stories. To back this up, you only need look at the SJA episode 'Enemy of the Bane' which credits 'Sir Alistair' as created by Haisman and Lincoln. The character is theirs, regardless of his rank.
