I'm stumped by the last 2.

3d Painter of king with his lady friend the queen (7) - I have K?E?L?R. The only word I can find to fit is kneeler, I've found that Koehler was a painter, but can't relate either to the clue.

16d Listless neighbours rendering the year satisfactory (7) - I have L?N?U?D - I presume languid, but cannot relate it to the clue.

Can anyone explain please?

3d (Sir Godfrey) K nell er

Could 3d be Kneller? as in:

K - King
Nell - His friend Nell Gwynn
ER - the Queen

and there was a German-born portrait painter called Sir Godffrey Kneller

16d I can only give a (?) partial explanation, in that Scotland is a neighbour and satisfactory could be translated as good = guid

poteen

France is also our neighbour, and l'an (LAN) is the year in French.

Thank you all!

I'd not heard of Sir Godfrey.

Languid now makes perfect sense.
