Galaxy was a short-lived British satellite television channel, owned and operated by British Satellite Broadcasting.
The station, focused on general entertainment and children's programming, was one of the five BSB channels, based at the network's headquarters at Marco Polo House in Battersea.
Galaxy broadcast a mix of original programming, American imports and archive repeats from the BBC library. Its most infamous production was Heil Honey I'm Home, a sitcom about Adolf Hitler, and Eva Braun living as a couple in America with their Jewish neighbors, which aired only its pilot episode.
