SuperTed is a Welsh animated television series about a teddy bear with magical super powers. It first aired on 1 November 1982. It was produced by Siriol Animation for Welsh television channel S4C where it was aired in the Welsh language, and later aired in English throughout the whole of the United Kingdom on BBC1, and dubbed into Irish for RTE.

SuperTed is the creation of Mike Young and Robin Lyons, who runs his own animation company called Calon in Cardiff, Wales.
