But many fans still don't know about several of the £1bn structure's remarkable features.

Neville, 50, was left in awe several times by the ingenious stadium. From a micro-brewery on site to links with Tottenham's famous past, no stone was left unturned as the Lilywhites built their new home. Here, SunSport takes a look around arguably the Premier League's best stadium. Kane's mega-box During his conversation with Neville, Levy was keen to show off Tottenham's plush VIP lounges. And where better to start than the one previously occupied by the club's all-time leading goalscorer prior to his £100million switch to Bayern Munich two years ago - complete with stunning kitchen, comfortable seats and an incredible view. Levy said: "This used to be Harry Kane's box." To which Neville exclaimed: "Jeez Harry! My mum and dad would have been happy if they were watching me at United and I gave them a box like this every week!

Harry's got a bigger kitchen than I've got at home in his box. "I've never been in one of these before and it's absolutely incredible." Daniel Levy says he'll get the credit he deserves when he leaves Tottenham in rare interview Levy's biggest regret During Neville's tour of the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, the former Manchester United star realised just what a hands on approach Levy had taken in the project. While standing in the 17,500-capacity South Stand, Neville couldn't help but cheekily ask if there was anything Levy would have liked to have done differently, with hindsight. Levy, 63, beamed as he said: "There's a couple of pillars that I wish weren't there at the moment. "Pillars when you drive in under the stadium, it's a bit tight." 20 Levy bemoaned the underground parking at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium Credit: Alamy 20 Levy grinned as he admitted that the parking is tight Credit: YouTube @ The Overlap Retractable pitch Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is not just used for football. Since opening, the venue has also been used for NFL games, rugby matches and several concerts, including the likes of Beyonce, Kendrick Lamar and Lady Gaga. Asked about how the surface "transforms" for different events, Levy revealed: "Underneath all the protective measures on the pitch is actually the NFL pitch. "There's an artificial pitch there. Then above this would be the grass pitch, and when we're in concert mode or NFL mode, the grass pitch goes under the famous South Stand. "It can stay there for up to 10-14 days. It has ventilation, irrigation, special mowers - so it's pretty unique piece of kit." 20 Tottenham Hotspur Stadium features an entirely separate NFL pitch Credit: The Times 20 Beyonce is among the superstar artists to have performed in Tottenham Credit: Getty Hidden F1 track In addition to the NFL, Tottenham have also partnered with Formula 1. Located beneath the South Stand is an F1-branded go-karting track. The nifty feature has become a popular attraction within London. Levy said: "When the grass pitch is here, that's a Formula 1 track, for go-karting." 20 Tottenham have partnered up with the NFL and Formula 1 Credit: Getty 20 An amazing go-karting track is located under the South Stand Credit: Supplied Amazing art gallery Tottenham boast the largest club shop in Europe, standing at 23,000 square feet. Within it is a 400-year-old listed building, which the club have restored and turned into an art gallery. Showing Neville around, Levy said: "There's a very old building called Warmington House. It's about 400 years old. Yep [it's listed]. "We had to keep it, we restored it... and it's now an art gallery. It's a beautiful building that we've completely restored." Neville was left in awe of the structure, replying: "It's brilliant. I love the integration of the old brick with the modern glass look." 20 Tottenham have turned a listed building into an art gallery Credit: YouTube @The Overlap 20 Spurs restored the 400-year-old building Credit: YouTube @The Overlap 20 Significant Spurs artwork now lines the wall of the building Pieces of history At the very start of Neville's tour, Levy proudly showed off a link with Tottenham's past. The Spurs chairman said: "Do you know about this floor? This is the old stadium." As Neville said "Oh wow," Levy continued: "All crushed. We wanted to have a link with the old, White Hart Lane and the history. "It's literally crushed concrete and smoothed afterwards." Within the South Stand concourse, there is also a plaque on the floor, marking where the centre spot within the old White Hart Lane used to be. 20 Tottenham used materials from their old White Hart Lane stadium for the floor Credit: YouTube @ The Overlap 20 Fans are able to see where White Hart Lane's centre spot used to sit Credit: X @SpursOfficial Borussia Dortmund-inspired stand The 17,500-capacity South Stand is Tottenham Hotspur Stadium's most obvious landmark. Levy takes great pride in the uniqueness of Tottenham's home - but does give credit to another club for the brilliant single-tiered stand. On inspiration for the new stadium, Levy said: "I wouldn't say there was one stadium that we said 'we need it to be like this'. "I think Dortmund in terms of our South Stand, the Yellow Wall. That's where we got the South Stand idea from." 20 Tottenham's incredible 17,500-capacity South Stand is a magnificent sight Credit: Getty 20 Spurs took inspiration for Dortmund's remarkable Yellow Wall Credit: Getty Incredible dressing room In contract to White Hart Lane's more old school dressing rooms, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium features huge, plush modern changing areas. In awe, Neville said: "Dressing rooms never cease to amaze me now, how good they are. "Wow. I remember the old White Hart Lane changing rooms." When Levy said the new dressing rooms were a "bit different" from the old, Neville laughed as he said: "Just a bit!" The inner bowels of Tottenham Hotspur Stadium also feature huge NFL dressing rooms. Much bigger than the football changing areas, due to the size of NFL rosters, the larger dressing rooms came in handy during Covid, giving players an opportunity to social distance on matchday. 20 Neville was very impressed with Spurs' plush dressing room Credit: Getty Beer brewed on site Tottenham partnered with Molson Coors last month, confirming that Coors, Madri, Rekorderlig and Cobra will be on the menu at home games next season, as well as Pravha. Fans will still be able to get Beavertown products, brewed especially on site. Showing Neville the micro-brewery, located between the South and East Stands, Levy explained: "We're very conscious with what we do with the local community. "One of our ideas was to have a craft beer, so we teamed up with a company called Beavertown, which was a craft beer company that was based locally. "We then said to them that we would like to brew our own beer in the stadium. So this is our brewery, in a joint-venture with Beavertown." When Neville asked if Spurs had bought into Beavertown, Levy said: "We didn't buy into it... unfortunately" At this point both men laughed as Levy rued the missed opportunity. The Tottenham chief then added: "But we did a joint-venture, in terms of all the beer sold in the stadium."

In the new season, Wednesday Addams (Ortega) must "navigate family, friends, and old adversaries, propelling her into another year of delightfully dark and kooky mayhem", Netflix explains. Armed with her signature razor-sharp wit and deadpan charm, Wednesday is also plunged into a new bone-chilling supernatural mystery. Co-creators, showrunners, and executive producers Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, speaking to Tudum, added: "Wednesday goes into this season thinking she knows Nevermore. 'But as soon as she returns, nothing happens the way she's expecting. "She thinks she's going to be in control, that she knows where all the bodies are buried, but she doesn't.

Co-creator and showrunner Alfred Gough said: '[Co-creator and co-showrunner] Miles [Millar] and I have been doing this long enough to know that shows like this don't come along every day. "It's such an alchemy of writing, directing, acting, crew, streamer, studio, and fans. "We remain grateful and excited to continue this journey and tell these stories with all of our partners.' Netflix said season three promises to go "even further, on every level". RECOMMENDED READING: Gough continued: 'Our goal for Season 3 is the same as it is for every season: to make it the best season of Wednesday we possibly can.

The Scottish-based crime thriller is currently sitting at number two on the top watched section of the streaming site.

A similarly short watch which scratches that itch of haunted stares across misty lakes, and secrets buried in the soil? Good job we have a few that might be your next binge. Below is another four detective dramas with the same vibe as the Netflix hit, each worthy of a shoutout on their own. Let's take a look... Top of the Lake Jane Campion's Top of the Lake is not the average murder mystery, it's more of a slow burner but definitely worth a watch on BBC. Elisabeth Moss stars in the role of Robin Griffin, the detective investigating the disappearance of a pregnant 12-year-old in a lakeside New Zealand town, who quickly becomes obsessed with the idea of cracking the case. Broadchurch Broadchurch didn't just redefine the detective drama, it reinvigorated the entire genre in Blighty.

David Tennant stars as DI Hardy, while Olivia Colman stars as DS Miller. The Dorset cliffs loom, and so do the lies. The Tourist BBC drama The Tourist has been a huge hit with TV fans bringing us all the edge-of-the-seat action needed for a good crime thriller. With two seasons under its belt, viewers are hoping a third comes soon. Series one of The Tourist is a six-part thriller drama which aired on BBC One in 2022. It follows a Northern Irish man, played by actor Jamie Dornan, suffering from amnesia following a car accident in the Australian outback. An epic cat-and-mouse chase unfolds, and Jamie's character later wakes in hospital, hurt, but somehow alive. Except he has no idea who he is. Full of shocking, surprising, funny and brutal turns, The Tourist is set in a world populated by quirky, enigmatic characters and off-beat comedy punctuates high-stakes action. Marcella Messy detectives, mental spirals, and unapologetic plot twists. Anna Friel is described magnetic as Marcella Backland, a detective grappling with blackouts, trauma, and increasingly unhinged murder cases. Set in London and from the creators of The Bridge, Marcella leans into psychological mystery. It's part thriller, part fever dream, and all over the place in an enjoyably chaotic way which is sure to have viewers hooked and looking to watch more.
