Can't you remember where did you put your glasses?

In the question above 'did' is not necessary. While as in the question below, 'do' is necessary. Can somebody explain why. Thanks.

Could you tell me who I have to speak to?

"Do" is not necessary in that question either. If you wish to be very formal, you can use "whom."
