- William David Flackes, OBE (14 March 1921 – 1 August 1993), better known as W. D. Flackes or Billy Flackes, was an Ulster journalist, broadcaster and author. He was the BBC Northern Ireland Political Correspondent between 1964 and 1982. Eric Waugh in The Independent, referring to Flackes' reporting of The Troubles, said "When it began to come to the boil - in 1966 - Flackes at once displayed before the network audience a notable talent for the simple exposition, balanced yet necessarily brief, of what was a highly complex community problem."
