everyone else seems to have the answer so perhaps I have a letter wrong -
71 down, ...church produces stress. I have ac?e?t.
help, please.

ah, yes, clearly actually having the puzzle available to look at and cross-reference confers advantages we Yanks don't have--thought "accent" would fit--but I still can't figure out where the church fits into that, cryptic or no--what's the thinking on that, Dutchy?
@MontereyJack,
Full clue was:Possibly can't admit church produces stress.
Anagram of cant & CE (from Church of England, or what you Americans call Episcoplian)
ah, that makes more sense.
Thanks, Dutchy and Monterey Jack, I see that accent is also a stress used over words in French or whatever.
I think Dutchy should go on one of those quiz shows, he knows EVERYTHING
@Dutchy,
really? sorry to drift away from crosswords, but did you win anything?
@babsfran,
Sure did, a crossword dictionary.
@Dutchy,
oh dear, well that gave me a good giggle!! Cheers.
