Afterward, she embarked on a flourishing television career. At 17, she secured the recurring part of Betinna Hohmann in Manni, der Libero (1982), followed by her first adult role as Irmgard Eyssen in Ein Klasse für sich – Geschichten aus einem Internat (1984-1985). Plate's signature 'dirty laughter' and notable performances in TV movies like Mord im Spiel (1985) as Ines Kaar, Der Jungemit dem Jeep (1986) as Charly, and Lyle (1990) as Egon, contributed to her growing fame.
