What's size grips should I be looking for when replacing my series 3 grips ?
Can anyone recommend a pair of comfy alternative grips rather than standard style ones ?

The Lambretta grips are both 1" diameter. if you buy motorcycle grips, you are likely to get one grip of 1" and one grip of 7/8".
Keith Newman of K2 Custom had a stock of original "balloon" grips for Lambretta. Authentic sixties style.
I am sure there are other grips available, but I don't find the original ones uncomfortable and they do wear well.
What issue do you have with the original grips?

I use the old bike Amal style ones, available as a pr at 1".
Readily available on ebay

I've never had any problems with original grips, they do the job fine. Apart from on my sidecar outfit as I've got super firm engine mounts and use balloon grips to dull the vibrations, they work well
