Shirley (Linda Henry) is in for a shock next month when she realises that the picture frame she gave to Heather before her death is mysteriously missing.
EastEnders fans will know that Heather's killer Ben Mitchell (Joshua Pascoe) used the frame to attack the mum-of-one during their fateful argument at her flat.
Magazine reports have revealed that Shirley quickly realises the frame must have been the murder weapon, so she tells the police all about it.
In a further twist, it turns out that Ben didn't dump the frame in the canal as Phil (Steve McFadden) advised him to. Instead, he has kept hold of it in a secret hiding place. Will he be able to make sure that it isn't found?
Amid the latest developments in the investigation, Ben is also floored when he learns that he's expected to give a reading at Heather's funeral. How will he cope with the increasing pressure he's facing?
EastEnders airs an emotional day for Albert Square's residents later this month as Heather Trott's funeral takes place.
Shirley (Linda Henry) is overwhelmed when she sees how many people turn up to pay their respects to Heather, who was recently killed by twisted Ben Mitchell.
As the service gets under way, Shirley recites a touching tribute to Heather, listing all of the things that she'll miss about her best friend.
However, as our pictures show, Ben (Joshua Pascoe) and Jay (Jamie Borthwick) also have to give readings at the church - which puts them under pressure as the cover-up continues.
Jay and Phil (Steve McFadden) begin to panic when Ben cries during his reading and starts apologising for his actions, coming dangerously close to revealing the truth about Heather's death.
Following his near-confession, Ben breaks down to Shirley and apologises for ruining the reading. How long can he carry on concealing the truth?
EastEnders airs these scenes on Thursday, April 12 at 7.30pm on BBC One.

EastEnders' Shirley Carter buries the hatchet with Andrew Cotton next week after finally realising that he didn't kill Heather Trott.
Shirley (Linda Henry) has suspected Andrew (Ricky Grover) of murder for some time, and even bans him from Heather's funeral in upcoming episodes of the soap.
However, after attending the emotional service next week, Shirley starts to go through the contents of Heather's work locker and is shocked to find two train tickets. Her discovery verifies what Andrew has been telling the police all along - he and Heather were planning to elope just before she died.
After uncovering the crucial evidence, Shirley heads straight round to see Andrew to make things right, before accompanying him to the police station to present DS Crisp with the tickets.
It seems that Andrew is now in the clear, and he and Shirley are on the same team for the first time. Working together, will they be able to uncover the identity of Heather's killer?
Meanwhile, EastEnders fans already know that the police make a shock arrest at Heather's wake - and more details can now be revealed about what takes place.
After leaving Phil (Steve McFadden), Ben (Joshua Pascoe) and Jay (Jamie Borthwick) startled by putting in an appearance at the funeral, DS Crisp later turns up at The Vic, where Heather's friends are busy sharing their memories of her.
Interrupting the proceedings, Crisp announces that he wants to speak to "Mr Mitchell" down at the station… Who will be arrested on suspicion of murder?
Cheryl Fergison has signed up to appear in panto this Christmas.
The actress - who played Heather Trott in BBC soap EastEnders - will appear as the Fairy Godmother in the Central Theatre's panto Cinderella later this year.
Pantomime producers Evolution Productions approached her to star in her first ever panto role in Chatham, Kent, reports Kent News.
She said: "I'm thrilled to be playing the part of the Fairy Godmother in Cinderella, and I've heard that the Central Theatre and Medway audiences are brilliant, so it's going to be loads of fun."
Pantomime producer Paul Hendy added: "We're really proud and excited that Cheryl will be headlining our cast. She's such a great character both on screen and off, and is hugely popular with viewers of all ages, so we know she's going to go down a storm in Chatham this Christmas."
Cinderella will run at the theatre from December 13 to January 6.
EastEnders fans saw Fergison's last appearance as Heather on March 19 when she was killed by teenager Ben Mitchell.
Fergison recently said that she is interested in pursuing a music career.
EastEnders star Ricky Grover turned down the chance to play Heather Trott's (Cheryl Fergison) boyfriend five times.
The actor, who plays Dot *Cotton's doorman nephew Andrew, didn't want the pair to be a 'silly fat couple' but was eventually persuaded to accept the role by old friend Steve *McFadden (Phil Mitchell).
"When I was first asked to be in EastEnders, I knocked it back five times. I thought, because Heather's fat and I'm fat, it would just be us walking along the *promenade eating chips and chocolate. I didn't want that," Grover told the Sunday Mirror.
"I wanted some meat on the bones of the role. But I looked at the part and thought there might be a bit more I could do with it. So I spoke to Steve, who's a mate of mine, and said I didn't want to play the silly fat bloke. He told me, 'Well don't then, play it how you want'.
"So I decided to take it and I knew it was the right move straight away. Me and *Cheryl really hit it off. It was like we worked together for years. I miss Cheryl big time. Everyone at EastEnders does."
Grover, who has just signed another six-month contract with EastEnders, added that, being from the East End, he often improvises scenes and changes a few lines to "make it sound authentic".
Heather's EastEnders funeral will be aired in the coming week.
EastEnders' Billy Mitchell faces tough police questioning over Heather Trott's murder in tonight's (April 13) episode of the soap.
As shown in previously unseen pictures below, things don't look good for Billy (Perry Fenwick) as he doesn't have anyone to back up his alibi for the night of the murder.
Billy also admits to having an argument with Heather the week before she died, which adds to the suspicion surrounding him.
Although Billy insists that he would never harm Heather, the situation looks increasingly bleak. Will anyone come forward to clear Billy's name?
EastEnders airs these scenes tonight at 8pm on BBC One.

EastEnders star Perry Fenwick has admitted that he is feeling nervous about Billy Mitchell's upcoming Olympics storyline.
As announced last year, Billy will carry the Olympic torch through Albert Square this summer as part of the torch's 2012 relay route.
EastEnders fans will see Billy take on the task in some brief live footage which will be slotted into July 23's episode of the BBC soap.
Fenwick told This Morning today (April 13): "That's the bit that's really worrying me! When we did the live episode of EastEnders, it put a few million on the viewing figures obviously, because they're going to watch it and they're going to see if you're going to mess up your lines.
"But the few million who'll be joining this time will be seeing if he falls over - what a laugh that'd be! I've been running round the Square training and stuff like that. I'm looking for every pothole down the market that could be filled in! I'm doing my preparation!"
Meanwhile, tonight's EastEnders episode sees Billy face a tough time as he is quizzed by police who suspect that he is Heather Trott's killer. Viewers know that Ben Mitchell (Joshua Pascoe) was the real culprit.
Fenwick joked: "Funnily enough, I've just worked out that the day that Billy's in prison is Friday the 13th. You could put money on that, couldn't you?"
Discussing Ben's guilt, he added: "I think that's what's good about this storyline, because usually in soaps it's more like a whodunit. But this is a bit like the old Columbo - only the audience know who's done it. Will he get away with it? It was really good fun to film, a real proper Mitchell story."
EastEnders continues tonight at 8pm on BBC One.
Ex-EastEnders star Cheryl Fergison has praised the aftermath of her murder plot.
The actress, whose character Heather Trott was killed by Ben Mitchell, believes that her character was "worth being killed off" given the cast's performance in recent weeks.
She tweeted this morning: "Think Steve McFadden (Phil) and Linda Henry (Shirley) have been fantastic on Enders and it was really nice to see Hev's hen night VT - loving Josh [Pascoe] who plays Ben.
"And Jamie [Borthwick] is great as Jay it has been fab watching the fallout if all this Adam Woodyatt (Ian) also brilliant strong storyline and worth being killed off for truly (sic)."
Fergison also admitted that she is unaware of the storyline's conclusion, despite asking Henry and McFadden.
The 48-year-old added: "They are doing a fab job can't wait to see what happens next. Talk to Linda and Steve often and they can't tell me."
This week in Walford, Ben confessed about Heather's murder to Ian Beale, sending the Albert Square stalwart into a meltdown.
