'YouTube.Models.YouTube' does not contain a definition for 'Id'

I am new to Umbraco and razor syntax. I am sorry if this issue is already discussed.

I am using a partial view in which I want to display the videos I am using the following query to get videos:

    @using YouTube.Models
    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage
    @{
        var homePage = CurrentPage.AncestorsOrSelf(1).First();  
        var lectureVideos = homePage.Descendants("videoLecture").Where("Visible");
    }

@foreach (var lecture in lectureVideos)
{               
    var typedVideo = lecture.GetPropertyValue<YouTube>("youTubeVideos");
    var videoId = typedVideo.Id;
    var videoUrl = String.Format("https://www.youtube.com/watch?v={0}", videoId);             
}

It gives the following error message:

'YouTube.Models.YouTube' does not contain a definition for 'Id'

Line 14:    var typedVideo = lecture.GetPropertyValue<YouTube>("youTubeVideos");
Line 15:    var videoId = typedVideo.Id;
Line 16:    var videoUrl =String.Format("https://www.youtube.com/watch?v={0}", videoId);
Line 17:    <p>@lecture.youTubeVideos</p>

can someone please help me to resolve this, or guide me how to display Youtube videos in this page.

Thanks in advance

When your casting to a YouTube object your calling for a ID on a IEnumerable. Trying calling .First() then getting the ID.

Thanks for your reply, I have tried and resolved it, not sure if it's a better approach.

@foreach (var lecture in lectureVideos)
{       
    var VideoModel = lecture.GetPropertyValue<YouTube>("youTubeVideos");
    var VideosList = VideoModel.GetEnumerator();
        VideosList.MoveNext();
    var typedVideo = VideosList.Current;            
    var videoId = typedVideo.Id;
    var videoUrl = String.Format("https://www.youtube.com/watch?v={0}", videoId);   
}

Please share if you have better solution for this, Thanks.
