Interesting to see debate going on between examiners! Looking at the CAA docs I would go with Beagle apart from one minor point, Beagle says :-
1. Full power and control column centrally forward UNTIL a pitch attitude is reached at which the stall warning ceases; don't pitch further and ensure you maintain slip indication central at all times.
Personally I would describe it as CC centrally forward and apply full power, this can be simultaneous (as said in the CAA leaflet), but putting it this way round is not only in agreement with the Authorities, but gets the student thinking in the right way that it is CC forward that recovers the stall, not the power.
Bose, if I did a test with you and failed on the stalling I would be showing you the CAA docs and asking you to show me where it says otherwise - how can you examine to a different technique than the CAA recommended one???
Also of course the rider that recommended technique for any particular aircraft should be followed.
