I know that that is used for things and who for people, but in some cases, I can't really explain why, but I'm hesitating between:

There are 4 more people that have watched the film #2 than people that have watched the film #3.

or

There are 4 more people who have watched the film #2 than people who have watched the film #3.

or

another way to say it?

  • OT: We would just say "film #2", not "the film #2".

  • Your second example (using "who") sounds just fine to me, and conforms to the rule. What are you asking for here? Commented Nov 16, 2017 at 18:55
  • @EightyEighty I don't know, normally I should use who, but I can't explain why, I had an hesitation, thinking that that would sound more natural.

  • @EdwinAshworth Thanks, so you would confirm the second solution (with who) is correct?
