Clues so far:

Outside, I read the news.

What am I ?

Clue: In figures what is the date today?

Clue: The title shows the way to go, but it's not to see a film.

It's one word I'm after, but there are alternative answers which I'll except.

edit: Darn it, picked the wrong film, should of picked The Omens which was released on 06.06.06

How about the town crier?

I jumped too soon there - I didn't see the Omen but there was no town crier in Mona Lisa from memory.

The relevance of the date has me confused but is it a toilet sign for "Men Only".

No.

...but there was no town crier in Mona Lisa from memory.

Are you talking about Mona Lisa with Bob Hoskins, I believe a bit of crying went on there.

The relevance of the date has me confused but is it a toilet sign for "Men Only".

Not a toilet sign.

The relevance of the date 6.6.06 or as the media would have it 6.6.6.

666 is the number of the beast and was supposed to point you in the direction of The Omen.

Clue: Bleigiessen.

Found this on the Bleigiessen sculpture

'Bleigiessen': a stunning sculpture for the Wellcome Trust Headquarters

Thomas Heatherwick Studio was commissioned to create this major work for a spectacular 30-metre-high vertical void in the NW corner of our new international headquarters on Euston Road. The work towers seven storeys of the building at a busy intersection between Euston Road and Gower Street, and can be easily viewed by passers-by.

Consisting of 150 000 specially processed glass spheres, suspended on almost one million metres of fine stainless steel wire, the sculpture glows with a constantly shifting rainbow of colours. This effect was created through a unique process of sandwiching reflective 'dichroic' film within the glass.

The form of the sculpture has been derived, through the use of 3-D computer modelling, from the twisted shape of a drop of molten metal, which cooled and solidified as it fell through tumbling water. The aim was to produce a sinuous, curvaceous form with variety, so that it would look different from each of the building's nine floors.

And I found that :

The German Custom of Bleigiessen
Bleigiessen (pouring molten lead) is a popular German custom on New Year's Eve. here

Maybe I'm biased but it seems to fit with the Omen clue.

Luna, It looks like your on the right path It might pay to look at the riddle and see if it helps you in any way.

bleigiessen = lead-guessing

lead = the lead role and I’m guessing it = Damien

Are you a demon, daemon? Are you an old devil?

Is there a newsreader called Damien?

Has someone who hasn’t seen The Omen got a hope in Hades of getting this?

If you've followed Luna's link you may have read this.

The shape of the lead determines the future of the person for the year to come

lead = the lead role and I’m guessing it = Damien

Are you a demon, daemon? Are you an old devil?

No.

See previous quote - It what it signifies.

Is there a newsreader called Damien?

Not relevant.

Has someone who hasn’t seen The Omen got a hope in Hades of getting this?

Yes.
It has nothing to do with 'The Omen'.


Earlier clue.

Are you an astrologer?

[MCC]

Are you an astrologer?

No.

But you're on the right lines, it's a more hands on occupation.

[lunababy_moonchild]

I reckon it's an auger or a fortune-teller. Or a prophet, or a clairvoyant.

Could it be harbinger?

Luna

[MCC]

Auger - Fortune-teller - Prophet - Clairvoyant - Harbinger.

All no, but very warm, even hotter if you dip your hands in here.

[lunababy_moonchild]

OK, magician then. Or, for that matter, Hell?
