What would the best approach be to schedule something like a radio
program which is on monday to friday at a certain time for the next 20
weeks?

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Incredible Radio Show 20:00-20:55
&%%(and
(and (< 0 (calendar-day-of-week date))
(< (calendar-day-of-week date) 6))
(diary-block 2010 3 1 2010 7 18))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
The time is in the heading, you can use am/pm style too.
The "&%%(" introduces diray sexp (an elisp snippet evaluated during the
porcess of building agenda view). This one is true, which makes the
event appear, when all of following conditions ar met:
+ the day of week obtained with calendar day of week is greater than
0 (0: sunday, 6: saturday), and less than 6.
+ the date is between 2010-03-01 (March 1) and 2010-07-18 (July 18)
Note that:
+ you have to calculate the end date by hand (maybe there is a
function for this, but the sexp would be longer),
+ the order of numbers in diary block expression depends on the
value of calendar-date-style variable. This one is iso style.

Just to follow up on this, this format worked for me:
%%(and
(and (< 0 (calendar-day-of-week date))
(< (calendar-day-of-week date) 6))
(diary-block 2 1 2010 7 18 2010)) History Of The World In 100 Objects (R4) 19:45-19:59
The actual text in the heading was ignored and the text to display must
follow the regexp.
regards,
r.
