Hi Richard,

I had pretty same error and I tryed one trick which worked for me. I have downgraded twig engine to version 1.18 which is used in this video. I have typed in console 1) 'composer require' -> hit enter 2) then typed twig -> hit enter 3) then choose a number for 'twig/twig' -> hit enter 4) and finally entered version '1.18' -> hit enter. And it worked for me.
