I hear spraying with very soapy water will get rid of the aphids - is this correct?

Actually in the first part of the video I seem to see there some parasitoids, the ones with wings, probably wasps. Watch out for aphid mummies, that is, the swollen parasitised aphids!

The winged ones are the same species of aphids.
Aphids have a very complicated life cycle. Some forms are wingless and reproduce partenogenetically. Others are winged and fly off to other plants and may or may not be sexual. It is very intricate.
