Anyone fancy shedding some light on who was the right of way in this situation?

Both cars on the minor roads at the junction, the main road is a thoroughfare with the minor roads both marked as Give Way. The main road is clear and 2 cars are facing off, car to the North wants to turn right onto the main road. Car to the South wants to either go straight on over the main road and onto the other minor road or turn right onto the main road. Who has right of way?
 
What about if both cars are turning right onto the main road (albeit in different direction of travel!).

It's more a general interest query, it's a junction on the way to the Tesco near me and quite often ends up in a Mexican stand off with lights flashing and arm waving. Does the situation change if there's a zebra crossing on one of the minor roads (one to the North, just behind my nice square car)?

Interesting to note the different opinions and apparent lack of a definitive answer (glad its not just me!)
