according to the review on the link above:

The videos for "Aces High" and "2 Minutes To Midnight" are promotional videos featuring insert footage. "Aces High", a tribute to the RAF, features clips from WWII newsreels, while "2 Minutes To Midnight" has a long and confusing sequence of insert footage, something to do with organized crime, but I can't tell exactly what's going on. My one complaint is that we see very little of the band during the playing of this great song.

"Hallowed Be Thy Name" and "Run To The Hills" were recorded live in Eastern Europe during the band's 1984 tour after the release of the album "Powerslave". "Hallowed Be Thy Name" was shot in Katowice, Poland, and "Run To The Hills" in Budapest, Hungary. "Hallowed Be Thy Name" features some footage from the Russian movie "Alexander Nevsky" in between concert footage. The only drawback from the live recordings was that Bruce Dickinson held the microphone away from his mouth when he sang the line "...we gave him hell" on "Run To The Hills"(presumably to protect virgin Hungarian ears, but it messes up the rhyme scheme with the previous line "...we fought him well").
