gone pear-shaped

When the majority of things appear to be negative. Like the shape of a pear, the majority is at the bottom (bad) and little is at the top (good).

gone pear-shaped

British slang term, used to describe when a situation has gone bad....I've no idea where it originates, but that's how it's used.

Pear-shaped

very wrong, unrescuable.
'Pear-shaped' is an RAF euphemism for 'tits-up', which is itself a euphemism for 'dead'.
The Oxford dictionary definition cites an RAF source in 1983. I was an RAF pilot in 1983. The reason no-one will confirm the meaning officially is that it's rude, hence the rubbish about aerobatics. Loops that go wrong are egg-shaped, and have always been referred to as such.
