She seemed to get a lot of screen time but mostly her contributions were limited to sorta lurking around, giggling or repeating the comment she was addressed with with more giggling. Was she someone's protégé or something?

You mean Raksha Dave who excavated at Catalhoyuk, has presented on numerous tv shows, and is a research affiliate of a museum connected with Oxford? That Raksha Dave?
I don't know, man, I'd say she was probably doing excellent field work. She always provided great analysis and lent the whole affair a more friendly vibe.
Better question: What's the deal with your negative rude attitude?
I’m another Raksha fan. Can’t imagine why anyone would be negative about her. Smart, really cute and gets down there in the mucky muck every time.
I definitely have had a crush on Raksha since the first episode I saw her on.
I just love her name.
If you’re going to be negative about anybody, be negative about that woman whose job seemed to be to smile at whatever expert was explaining what they found in the archives. She’s the one who caused Mick to quit after one dig where she was making up spurious connections to one of Henry VIII’s wives that didn’t really exist.
Which episode was that? Genuinely curious as I don’t recall that.
Oh man. We’ve just hit the season where Mary Anne joined and boy, does she not really add anything. Tony was doing fine, Channel 4. Why did you go muck things up with the cast? I mean Alex Langland was great in the XX Farms series, but he is no Stewart. And now in S20, where the heck is Geophys and Helen?!
I'm under the impression that she was relatively camera shy, but otherwise deserved to be there.

You mean Raksha Dave, current president of the council for British Archaeology?
