A few sources alleged the series aired as six episodes in the UK and three episodes in the US.
I confirmed the PBS (US) broadcast:
Thursday. February 19. 1987 "A Little Princess" will be presented on three consecutive Saturdays beginning this weekend.
But I couldn't confirm that it aired in the UK first. I added the same air dates most databases use...

Here's a page about the LWT version, I think that one is pretty detailed to be trusted!

As the crew (director, producers) also are British, I think it's very likely it premiered in the UK.
We could just add and lock the first and last episode dates;
"Sunday 18th January 1987 to 22nd February 1987."
And then maybe guesstimate the rest of the episode each a week apart, see if that fits :-P

I agree, it's part of the reason why I didn't use the US dates. Your source matches the dates I added, thanks @alltimemarr !
