King appeared on "Dream Team" as Lynda Block for three years and left when the character was sent to prison. She reprised the role some years later. During her break from working on "Dream Team", she worked on several projects abroad including a role as an extra in the American feature film, "Shanghai Knights" — appearing in a scene as a prostitute alongside Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson — supporting major roles such as BBC comedy-drama, "Help", as well as video film, "Submerged" (2005) and feature film, "Final Contract: Death on Delivery", both action films. She said of working on "Submerged": "The first one was with Steven Seagal, which was filmed in Bulgaria. He's a member of the American military and I'm Dimita – the best field op in the business. I'm an action girl with a high pony-tail doing lots of stunts. The stunt guy had worked with Angelina Jolie on "" and he showed me how to hang upside down from things, how to jump down into dams and how to strangle people with my knees. It was great fun." She said of "Final Contract": "In that one I was armed with a crossbow and chasing round in speedboats and fighting". Her work in "Submerged" was complimented as an impression of Angelina Jolie.
