I remember liking Silent witness when Amanda Burton was in the lead role. It has a million seasons though and not sure what the quality was like after her departure.
Prime suspect with Helen Mirren.
Foyle's war is set during WWII.
Cadfael is set during the middle ages (more mystery than procedural).
I enjoyed The stranger also. Again more mystery than procedural.

Seen the Bodyguard, I'll watch anything if it has Keeley Hawes. Broadchurch not yet.
Cadfael sounds interesting! What I really need is something like that or Foyle's War but set during the English Civil Wars, the historical period I can't stop reading about these days.
Should watch Prime Suspect, it's often mentioned in the same breath as the outstanding Robbie Coltrane vehicle Cracker.
Mystery is great, for me it's interchangeable with procedurals, either can do the job if the mood is right and it's not too stupid. Will give The Stranger a try, though there's something about this Coben's writing that rubs me the wrong way (the sentimentality maybe?). Someone told me the Korean show The Stranger that's also on Netflix is fantastic.
Thanks.
Started La Promesse, very good show.
