Satellite City is a Welsh sitcom, originally a radio show on BBC Radio Wales in 1994 and later a TV version made by BBC Wales and first broadcast in 1996.
A pilot, eighteen 30-minute episodes and a one-hour special were made in all. The pilot was significantly different from the remainder of the series, portraying Idris, one of the main characters, as senile and deluded into believing that clothes pegs were talking to him.
In 1999, the series won a BAFTA Cymru Award for Best Light Entertainment.
