Christmas Night with the Stars was a programme screened annually on Christmas night, when the top stars of the BBC appeared in short versions of their programmes, typically five to ten minutes long. All Gas and Gaiters appeared once alongside its sitcom spin-off Oh, Brother! in 1968, however this telerecording still exists in the BBC's film and videotape archives alongside other surviving Christmas segments from other sitcoms.

delicate Man, whose flesh
