Instead of using diary s-expressions, what I do is create one entry for
the first lecture, say, and then use org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift
to create the copies, typically shifted by 1 week. Then I go through
the created entries and delete those weeks that need to be omitted.
Maybe not as elegant but works very well and it's what I've been doing
for years now for my own lectures.
