Banned? Why? They were shooting chavs not pakistanis or something. PC gone mad, classic advert....

Paddy Power has a tendency to make ads that gets a lot of complaints / banned.

Part of their marketing strategy.

Got this off Yahoo answers for you as it seemed to fit the question you asked:

White trash. Chavs are basically English rednecks but without the beard. They wear tracksuits, hoodies, white trainers, gold jewellery called bling, and engage in drunkenness and antisocial behavior. Despite living on council estates they are not working class as they scrounge off welfare and refuse to work. They are what Marx called the underclass.

I actually find the chav one to be the funniest

Yeah, they picked the chavs well. The wideboys, which I like to refer to as Saturday night millionaires are always at the races and they are normally very pissed.
