Hi Stephen,

This topic comes up frequently on the Q&A Forum.

If you take a look at the following Kwiziq lesson -

https://kwiziq.learnfrenchwithalexa.com/revision/grammar/when-to-use-cest-or-il-est-elle-est-to-say-it-is

and the Q&A at the end of it you will see there is not a simple answer.

Hope this helps!
