 Accepting that it is the same show in my mind. Over bright vid tape, sets
and computer special effects <well it was supposed to be computers doing
the stuff> that makes late 70s Dr. Who look good. Perhaps I can see why.
Really ultra low budget.

 All I really remember about the show was the escape of the "heretic" guy
and the girl from the <can't think of proper word> in some witch hunting
tech level. Followed by the girls intended as the hunter with a sort of
crossbow. Finding that they are on a great ark that has lost its crew.
Several different computers are running the ship. Not all are in
agreement. Ship contains different domes/pods of differetn time periods
and cultures of earth. Ship is heading to a black hole. Adventure was with
the computers on the ship, some aliens that would arrive from time to
time. Of course the different areas of the ship. Ithink there was a plot
line of some sort of scavenger hunt to sasve the ship. But it has been
since the originall airing that I saw the show.

 Caught my attention at the time as it was different. I was also back in
"the real world" for a couple of years at that time. And I could be
remembering something totally different that what show you mentioned. Save
that I remember it being Canadain, and vid tape.

 Few years later I wondered if Jeff Ward had used that show for
Metamorphis Alpha as inspiration. Smeg I wish my books for that game
hadn't been stolen.
