1) Seafaring NCO gets turn to dance as punk (4) P?G?

2) Portrait session with painter holding couple in good position (7,6). I have S?T?I?G ?R?T?Y, and the answer is obviously SITTING PRETTY. I understand that "Portrait session" is SITTING, and that "in good position" is SITTING PRETTY, but why/how does "with painter holding couple" equate to PRETTY?

3) Killed the wrong way, certainly casually? (5) D?F?O

1 Sitting + Pr(pair) + Etty (Painter)
1 pogo
1 Pogo

PO (Petty Officer) + Go (turn)
3 deffo
Pogo - 'P(etty) O(fficer)' + 'go' (turn)

Sitting pretty - 'sitting + Etty (painter)' (holding) 'p(ai)r'

Deffo ("certainly", casually) - 'offed' (killed, back)
deffo (offed)
offed = killed , wrong way = deffo = certainly
