Spectator 2662

Just a check as I've kept the British end up and finished the grid - 

20d Extremely clever nurses invite busy person for a drink (4,4) C?S? / B?E? 
 

Is it C(')EST BIEN and if so, why? 
 

Thanks

Cask beer - 'c(leve)r' (extremely, nurses; contains) 'ask (invite) bee (busy person)'

I got confused with the location of the accent & apostrophe from the preamble, but I've found them now.

Fleshpots... your OP made me laugh, made me remember the times I've come up with answers that ... didn't work at all! The puzzle itself wasn't very entertaining, but straightforward enough.

A nice, gentle puzzle from Jerezana this week. I thought the title was a bit of a give-away though.

Nev - I've gone down many incorrect rabbit-holes in my Speccy career lol
